The Second Sunday of Christmas

Father you loved us so much that you sent your only son, Jesus, so that we could share your everlasting life. We thank you for this love and ask you to help us to try not to spoil your plans again. Amen

Into the light Seat the children in a circle. If possible, dim or turn off the lighting. Read this prayer while someone switches on and off a source of light at appropriate times. This prayer can be repeated several times to allow children to be the light source – a torch? Lord Jesus, You came as the light of the world. Some days this world seems very dark. Please help us to see your light and be your light. Where people are sad, let us bring the light of your joy. Where people are lonely, let us bring the light of your friendship. Where people are angry, let us bring the light of your calm. Where people are upset and annoyed, let us bring the light of your love. In every place and at all times, help us to recognise your light and to live by it. Amen
