Morning Prayer--

Good morning God,
Thank you for your grace that comes fresh every morning. As I start this day and this season of lent, put a new and right spirit in me. Help keep my thoughts, words, and actions holy;  and guide me—moment by moment—to know and live in the love of Jesus.  Amen.

The universal Church—that all of God’s people would return to Christ with humble and obedient hearts
  
Mealtime 'bread' Prayer--

Jesus Christ, son of God, be present at our table. In this season of lent, teach us to love all our neighbors,
especially those without enough to eat and those who feel alone. Bless this fellowship and this food.
Fill us up, so that we may go out and love others in your name.
Amen.



Evening Prayer--

Heavenly Father, I had good moments and bad moments today—and I know you were with me through all of them. Thank you. In your mercy, forgive what needs forgiving and help me to mend what needs mending… but tomorrow is another day. For now, let me to rest in your presence. Help me to be still and know that you are God, and that I am yours. Amen.
