“It is absolutely vital that the Church is able to speak confidently and courageously to these issues."
Today, The Bishop of Oxford, Steven Croft, told bishops from 165 countries gathered at the #LambethConference that the world will see the ‘greatest changes in science and technology ever seen in human history’ over the coming decades.
“These changes will raise significant questions around justice, about ethics, about employment about what it means to be human and to build flourishing human communities,” he told the Conference.

The Lambeth Conference has issued a series of public “statements of support” highlighting needs around the world from conflict in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo and the invasion of Ukraine to gun violence in the United States.
Among the 14 statements, each presented by a sponsoring bishop, the Conference voiced concern for the crisis in Sri Lanka, the peace of Jerusalem and the Holy Land, and the people of Burma/Myanmar.
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, brought a statement of support for Nigeria and another remembering the global refugee and migration crisis. Meanwhile, Archbishop Linda Nicholls of Canada sponsored a statement affirming support for the rights of indigenous peoples.

"We are living at a time of multiple global crises, emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic and with climate change, conflict and an emerging food crisis. In our collective pain, we need symbols and actions of hope.
The Communion Forest is a symbol and act of hope – something we can do together as God’s Church for God’s World as we journey on from the Lambeth Conference.
The Communion Forest will take many different forms across the Anglican Communion, reflecting the rich diversity of our global body. I encourage you to join in this exciting initiative in your way, whether by protecting a precious environment, restoring a degraded one or planting something new. All these activities are spiritual acts too, for:
🌳 To plant is to hope
🌳 To protect is to love
🌳 To restore is to heal–to share in God’s reconciling work in all creation.
Jesus himself is often found outdoors in the gospel narratives. Key moments of his ministry took place on mountain sides, on the Sea of Galilee, in the wilderness and by the Jordan River. On the night before he died, Jesus, found peace as he prayed to his Father in the Garden of Gethsemane amongst the olive trees.
Please join together in this act of hope, love and healing."
- Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury

Creator God, we thank you for the beauty that surrounds us and the signs of your love that can be seen in the natural world.

Timeline photosToday we give thanks for a deal signed to reopen Ukrainian Black Sea ports for grain exports. It was feared that a blockade by Russian ships would cause an international food crisis, with some 20 million tonnes of grain stuck in silos. God, we give thanks for this act of diplomacy. We pray that it would be honoured, and that it would successfully reach those in need.
Every day, we’re encouraging you to lift up your eyes and pray for others around the world as part of #StayAndPray.

A prayer for people 🙏
Creator of all, your love embraces the whole world and all peoples of every language, race and nation. In our midst the sin of racism infects our communities with hatred and death and obscures the recognition of your image in every human being.
May our commitment to one another through the transforming love of Christ heal divisions, restore justice and bring reconciliation between races and nations.
May the witness of the Anglican Communion to partnership, mutual respect and interdependence be a beacon of hope to your world as ambassadors of reconciliation through Jesus Christ our Redeemer.
Amen.
- A prayer shared with our community last year from Archbishop Linda Nicholls, Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada

BLESSING FOR THOSE IN DISTRESS
May you come safely to shore
across the dark ocean
and know
that even in the darkest depths
there is hope to be found
and peace.
Mary Taylor

It also explores the tradition of blessings, including biblical and Celtic, and offers ideas and resources to encourage readers to write blessings of their own, with suggestions for how to organise a blessings workshop.

Timeline photosApparently, the world's first emergency telephone number (999) was launched in London on this day in 1937. Some people jokingly talk about a 'direct line' to God through prayer, but do you feel like you can talk to God at any time about anything?
Our prayer today was inspired by a prayer from Comfort in Uncertain Times by Rachel Turner. www.brfonline.org.uk/products/comfort-in-uncertain-times

BENEDICTION
Glorious Lord, I give you greeting!
Let the church and the chancel praise you,
Let the chancel and the church praise you,
Let the plain and the hillside praise you,
Let the world’s three well-springs praise you,
Two above wind and one above land,
Let the dark and the daylight praise you.
Abraham, founder of the faith, praised you:
Let the life everlasting praise you,
Let the birds and honeybees praise you,
Let the shorn Stems and shoots praise you.
Both Aaron and Moses praised you:
Let the male and the female praise you,
Let the air and the ether praise you,
Let the books and the letters praise you,
Let the fish in the swift streams praise you,
Let the thought and the action praise you,
Let the sand-grains and earth-clods praise you,
Let all the good that’s performed praise you.
And I shall praise you, Lord of glory:
Glorious Lord, I give you greeting!
Translated by Joseph P Clancy. ‘The Earliest Welsh Poetry’
(Macmillan, 1970)

Timeline photosToday we pray for a reduction in pollution worldwide. A report has found that one in six deaths worldwide in 2019 was caused by pollution, with 92% of those happening in low- or middle-income countries. God, we grieve this global injustice. We pray that high-polluting countries and industries would be moved to change their practices.
Every day, we’re encouraging you to lift up your eyes and pray for others around the world as part of #StayAndPray.
