We pray for our neighbours and give thanks for smiles and waves and the possibility of jokes.
We ask for humour and signs of joy and hope to be the infection that passes around most quickly.
Call: God, as we pray...
Response: hear us and be with us.
We pray for anxious times and ask for the ability to listen and ease one another by our connection of spirits.
May your Holy Spirit guide our listening and our speaking.

We pray for those around us and those absent, as we find new ways of being your people,
May our lives and prayers become entwined in new and precious ways.

Now and always.
Amen.
