MIDNIGHT PRAYER (Matins)

Collect

Jesus of Jerusalem,
in your compassion, Marie-Joseph visited
and fed the taurekareka, the unwanted,
the desperate and the criminal;
give to your whole church, we pray,
your caring, pioneering spirit
Amen.

Thank Him for 3 things that happened today (Good or Not!)

HASHKIVEINU

Lay us down to sleep, O LORD our God, in peace,
raise us erect, our King, to life;
and spread over us the shelter of Your peace.
Set us aright with good counsel from before Your Presence,
and save us for Your Name’s sake.
Shield us, remove from us foe, plague, sword, famine, and woe;
and remove spiritual impediment from before us
and behind us
and in the shadow of Your wings shelter us
For You are God who protects and rescues us;
the gracious and compassionate King.
Safeguard our going and coming
for life and for peace from now to eternity.
Blessed are You, O LORD,
Who protects His people forever.
Amen.

The Blessing

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ,
and the love of God,
and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit,
be with us all evermore.
Amen

The divine Spirit dwells in us.
Thanks be to God.
