Prayer of the Week 16 August 2026

Almighty God, you crossed the boundary to meet the Syrophoenician woman;
you met Joseph in, and took him out of, the well.
Be the bridge in places where we experience divisions in our daily lives.
Open our eyes to see your rescue plans for each of us in the circumstances and challenges of our lives.
Turn our ‘well’ experiences as pathways to your perfect will and plans for us
and give us the strength to wait and co-operate with you; in your name we pray.

Amen
