     Gracious Heavenly Father, thank You for this blessed Sunday morning.
    Lord, thank You for the gift of life and renewing of our spirit yet again, as we gather to worship You in Your sanctuary. May we stand firm and true to our calling. 
     Lord, we pray for the senior members of our family, Church and our neighbourhood. Thank You for the gift of life and the wisdom granted through the years. 
     Lord, let those who are dependent on others, gracefully accept the help with humility and that their dignity be upheld. Let those living alone, feel the intimate awareness of Your presence with them. 
     Lord, strengthen the eyes of faith and tune the ears of  heart to be more attentive to Your gentle voice, even as the body grows weaker and the pace of life may become slow. 
     Lord, You are righteous and filled with kindness. May we lean on Your promise that You would carry us, even to old age and gray hairs, for You have made, and You will bear; You will carry and will save us.
     In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
