Organist Entertains – Mini 7 and Episode 43

Good evening folks

Having just listened to the PM and the FM today we find ourselves in another lockdown

This is indeed a blow – a blow and delay in our eventual return to our churches

However the organist entertains seeks to help keep you connected with your Church, the building, it’s surroundings and the sounds of the organ.

The Mini Services of Festive Episodes concludes on Tuesday at 12pm, appropriately with Love came down at Christmas

Our main weekly episodes resume on Wednesday at 8pm with number 43

We feature some of your requests and suggestions, and wish one of our followers a happy birthday

Get in touch with your requests, dedication and suggestions

At the end of Episode 43 stay tuned for a thank you and an update into how many views all our videos have had! 😊

Take care.

A prayer to provide strength to all those battling Covid-19

Christians are urged to come together this evening at 7pm and pray for all those battling Coronavirus.

We are not alone

Former moderator of the General Assembly, Rev Colin Sinclair, said: “Sunday at 7pm has become increasingly a valued time for Christians as they pause to pray, conscious that many others will be sharing the same prayer at the same time.

“It helps create a sense of community when we are isolated through lockdown.”

Lord, we are those who journey

And who find that journey hard today.

We are those who journey

And long to find our hope renewed.

Lord in your mercy,

Hear our prayer.

Lord, whether in our own company or with companions beside us,

We journey on.

Whether sure, or unsure, as to our journey’s end,

Come beside us through the risen Lord.

Lord in your mercy,

Hear our prayer.

Lord, we pray for others;

For carers of the living and of the dying;

For the bereaved and for the anxious;

For those fearing loss of work and of business.

Lord in your mercy,

Hear our prayer.

Lord, we pray for scientists and researchers;

For those seeking to understand the challenge we face;

For those creating potential vaccines;

For those advising decision-makers.

Lord in your mercy,

Hear our prayer.

Lord, we pray for those who shape our common life:

In local Councils and in Scottish Government

And in the Government of the United Kingdom.

Grant to them wisdom, compassion and understanding.

Lord in your mercy,

Hear our prayer.

Lord, we pray for your Kingdom to come

And for your will to be done,

On earth

As it is in heaven.

Lord in your mercy,

Hear our prayer.

Amen.
