Psalm for the Week:
Psalm 30: 10-12
Hear, O God, and be gracious to me!
O God, be my helper!
You have turned my mourning into dancing,
you have taken my sackcloth and clothed
Me with joy, so that my soul shall praise you
and not be silent.
O my God, I will give thanks to you forever.
Prayer for the Week:
God of the way and the truth,
guide our feet into the way of peace
and guard our words.
Forgive us when we have gone astray.
Create in us the assurance that you are
our solid ground and that you are with us
on our blessed journey. Amen.
