Afghan prayers
Today our prayers are with the people of Afghanistan, especially those in fear of persecution. We pray the leadership will act with compassion to those whose lifestyles or beliefs they disagree with. Lord, have mercy. Amen.

Today our thoughts and prayers are with the Royal Family as they mourn the loss of Prince Philip. We hold them, and all those who feel this loss, in our prayers. Lord, bring peace and hope to all those suffering bereavement. Amen.
Our featured hymn this week is the classic ‘Here Is Love Vast As The Ocean’, a favourite hymn for Easter (or indeed any time). We’ve recorded a modern arrangement which you can see and sing along to here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWQls3nub7U
