Response

Prayers:

Intercessions	Offertory	There are PowerPoint files available for the prayers of intercession, offertory and a blessing. The background photos are of the Tynn Church in Prague. Ann writes "In 1986 the Tynn church was dark, dusty and neglected. Yet despite the air of neglect, people’s faith burned bright as a small faithful number gathered for Communion. In 1996, it was impossible to get inside; but through the glass doors, it was possible to see that work was going on. In 2006, the work was complete. The air of neglect had disappeared and the building looked loved and cherished." The prayers in this section are in a PDF file, Download
