Direct us, O Lord, in all our doings with your most gracious favor, and further us with your continual help; that in all our works begun, continued, and ended in you, we may glorify your holy Name, and finally, by your mercy, obtain everlasting life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
-A Prayer for Guidance
Lord Jesus, stay with us, for evening is at hand and the day is past; be our companion in the way, kindle our hearts, and awaken hope, that we may know you as you are revealed in Scripture and the breaking of bread. Grant this for the sake of your love. Amen.
-A Prayer for the Evening
O God, it is your will to hold both heaven and earth in a single peace. Let the design of your great love shine upon all humanity; and grant us your peace among the nations, peace in our homes, and peace in our hearts. Amen.
-A Prayer for Peace
