PRAYERS FOR SEPTEMBER Set our hearts on fire with love to thee, O Christ, that in that flame we may love thee and our neighbout as ourselves. Eastern Orthodox Prayer Very truly. I tell you, the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father. I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son, if in my name you ask me for anything I will do it. John 14:12-14 IN THE NAME OF GOD For all those who turn their backs on me, who call me abnormal, or disgusting, or other hurtful things in the name of ?God, and who pray for my demons to be cast out I pray in return that they may never have to feel the hurt, the pain, the fear and anxiety, which I suffer from their actions; that their demons, too, be cast out, and that together we can turn our minds to putting an end to fear and hatred, in the name of God. Amen. Jenni Sophia Fuchs, a youth associate of the Iona Community PRAYER I thank thee, for knowing me better than I know myself, and for letting me know myself better than others know me. Make me I pray better than they suppose, and forgive me what they do not know. Attributed to Abu Bakr (573-634) the prophet Mohammed's father-in-law
