CYCLE

OF

PRAYER

2016

INTRODUCTION

In this calendar of prayer, you will find the names of parishes and clergy
(in bold print) following the date and Sunday of the year.
On the second line (in italics) we pray for a particular aspect of the life
and witness of the Dioceses and the wider family of the Church.
On the third line (in lower case) you will find the names of the Porvoo
Churches, and on the last line (in BLOCK CAPITALS) you will find the
Anglican Cycle of Prayer.

In view of the successful outcome of the Church of Ireland and Methodist


Church in Ireland Covenant and other ecumenical endeavours, we should
also pray for our brothers and sisters in the wider family of the Church.
As prayer is so essential and central in our hopes, plans and endeavours,
it is encouraging to know that the yearly Cycle of Prayer is used
extensively throughout our Dioceses.
Please continue to use this prayer cycle as we grow in our relationship
with God, with one another and in the life our faith community.
It is recommended that one copy of this booklet be left on the Prayer
Desk of every church throughout the Dioceses of Meath and Kildare.
