Vestry Prayer for Lent 1 year C

Father God, on this first Sunday in Lent as we consider your time of preparation and temptation help us to see how important that period was for you.
As we enter this period of Lent and begin to think about the meaning of your Son's death and resurrection help us to teach and reflect it through the way we live.
Help us in our worship today and bless your servant who has come to lead our worship and share your word with us.
We ask all these things in the name of your Son our Lord.
Amen.

Thank you so much for your vestry prayers. What a wonderful discovery. I am stewart for the very first time ever tomorrow and have been thinking all week about what I would like to/should say in the vestry prayer. You have really helped me.
God bless you.

Thanks for the encouragement Barbara. I know I get a number of visitors each week looking for vestry prayers but not many comments so it is always good to hear from someone who has found this particular thing useful.
