A prayer as the Brexit transition period ends

Brexit, Uncategorised · 18 December, 2020

God of all
At this moment of change
we pray for our country,
our neighbours,
and for your kingdom to come.

Where there are new freedoms,
may they be used with wisdom and compassion
Where there are new barriers,
may we not forget those on the other side
Where there are new challenges,
may we seek your strength
Where there is discord and hurt,
may you enable healing and reconciliation.

We pray for all
who face uncertainty or anxiety at this time,
for those whose lives and livelihoods will change.

Confirm in us your eternal call
to act justly, love mercifully
and walk humbly with you.

Amen

Simeon Mitchell

I became interim JPIT Team Leader in April 2021, and have the privilege and responsibility of coordinating the work of the team. I was previously Deputy Team Leader, and have been Secretary for Church and Society for the United Reformed Church since January 2018. My background is in international development and enabling Christians and churches to respond to issues of global poverty and injustice. I live in Oxford with my wife and three children, and am a preacher and lay leader in my local church.
