I am forwarding this message and attachment from St. Mary's
Church, Hamilton Village on the Penn Campus.
Peace,
Holman
Welcome.
The Campus Episcopal Church of St. Mary
offers this sacred space to everyone in the University community for prayer,
reflection, refuge, and solace. Feel free to stay as long as you like.
There are prayer books in the shelves by the door. We ask your prayers for
all those who have died today. "Give to the departed eternal rest; and let
light perpetual shine upon them." We ask your prayers for the families of
these victims, and for all who love them. "Have compassion from those who
suffer from any grief or trouble; that they may delivered from their
distress." Pray for our leaders and all in authority. Pray for those who
have done this destruction, and, in the words of The Book of Common Prayer, "�
for the poor, the persecuted, the sick, and all who suffer; for refugees,
prisoners, and all who are in danger; that they may be relieved and
protected; for our enemies and those who wish us harm; and for all whom we
have injured or offended." In the name of God, pray for forgiveness, grace,
and peace.
Daily for a time, we will celebrate Eucharist at Noon, say Evening Prayer at
6 PM and share the ancient night service of Compline together late in the
evening.
