On Sunday, Oct. 8th, our son, David and new daughter-in-law, Katherine celebrated their wedding at the Wren Chapel at William and Mary - the most romantic spot in the State of Virginia. For wedding photo’s, go here.
I was privileged to write, and read the intercessions (prayer of the faithful), based on the readings and my own hopes for David and Katherine as well as for all of us. The readings were:
Here is the prayer:
For the church, may it always support, encourage, and challenge David and Katherine – and all couples – to continually grow in their love of one another, we pray to the Lord:
Response: Lord hear our prayer
For leaders in government, business and academia, may they strive to provide a climate of peace in which all families can prosper and grow in love for one another, we pray to the Lord:
Response: Lord hear our prayer
For all assembled here – and all who cannot be here – may they be encouraged in their love, return home safely and continue to grow in their own love, we pray to the Lord:
Response: Lord hear our prayer
For Katherine and David as they begin their life’s journey as husband and wife, may they continue to grow in love with all their hearts, all their minds and all their strength, we pray to the Lord:
Response: Lord hear our prayer.
Amen
