Cycle of Intercessions Pentecost - Christ the King 2016
RCL Year C
Weekday Lectionary Year 2
EDITOR’S NOTES
This booklet has been compiled in conjunction with
THE ANGLICAN CYCLE OF PRAYER 2015/6 This lists all Dioceses in every part of the world. It is only available on ‘The Anglican Communion Official Website’ at: www.anglicancommunion.org/acp/
The Anglican Cycle of Prayer is published by the Anglican Communion Office and is © 2004 Anglican Consultative Council.
Liturgical
Each weekday is presented with the date, day and the Saints/Feast Day taken from The Church in Wales Lectionary produced by The Church in Wales/Yr Eglwys yng Nghymru. The colour of a Sunday is stipulated in the title. All other days (unless feasts of the Lord) are divided between Red and Black letter days. Feasts of the Lord and Red Letter days have a Gloria and a proper preface.
If a saints day (black/minor) falls on a Sunday that day has been superseded. If it is your feast of title or dedication then it may take precedence over a Sunday. That said, it can be celebrated on the next available feria day. Copies of the Lectionary are available from 39 Cathedral Road, Cardiff, CF11 9XF 02920 348259.
Holy Cross Day may be kept on Sunday 11 September as a diocesan celebration – the day on which the Diocese came in being and the Priory Church of St John Evangelist raised to Cathedral status.
All Saints Day may be kept on Kingdom 1.
2
Cycle of Prayer
Each Sunday has been divided into two sections: 1. The Anglican Cycle 2. The Diocesan Cycle
With the implementation of Ministry Areas, these (as Ministry Areas currently exist) have been allocated to a particular week. The Ministry Area Leader, clergy, lay ministers and any schools within a Ministry Area are prayed for. Where there is space, Provincial or Diocesan intentions are mentioned. When it is the turn of your Ministry Area to be prayed for, please pray, that day, for the work of the Cathedral as your mother church.
This Cycle of Prayer is intended to be used together with the Ecumenical Prayer Cycle “With All God’s People”, published by the World Council of Churches and also with the Porvoo Communion Invitation to Prayer which can be found on the Church in Wales website. However, they are not meant to be followed rigidly - in times of need appropriate prayers should be substituted.

Those to be made Deacon – Sunday 26 June Justin Davies, Ian Folks, Hywel Griffiths, Nigel King, Dave Martin, Anthony Porter, Rachel Storer

Father, we hold before you
our family in the Diocese of Swansea and Brecon
and we open our hearts and minds to your Spirit:
Bless us as we gather in your name;
Guide us as we grow into the likeness of your Son;
Lead us by your Spirit to go out and make disciples of others.
God of our journeying, be our way and our truth and our life;
our beginning and our end.
We pray through Jesus our Lord. Amen.
