Back-to-Work Prayers to lift post-holiday blues

26/09/07

The Church of England has published a selection of prayers to help weary workers kick the post-summer holiday blues.

The five prayers - by authors ranging from Charles Wesley to Sheridan James, a curate in Catford - have been selected to give busy people a chance to reflect and recharge with God's help. The prayers are taken from Pocket Prayers for Work (Church House Publishing, 2004) and are available at www.cofe.anglican.org/prayers, alongside a range of other prayers on contemporary concerns.
