  • Prayers at a time of tragedy

    As I write this I’m hearing and seeing the news of the tragedy in George Square involving a bin lorry, unfold on twitter and news services. The accident is just about a 100 yards away from the Diocesan Office, an area I know well.

    My thoughts and prayers are there and it is hard not to think that I’ll know someone who was in the square at the time it happened this afternoon.

    Eternal God
    at this time of bewildering tragedy in the city
    help us to pray for those involved.
    For those in hospital, for those who have died,
    for those who rescue, for those who comfort,
    for medical staff and for witnesses passing,
    for all who wonder why.

    Lord in your mercy.
    Hear our prayer.

    Glad the questions have been of use. Let me know how your conversation goes. I asked the questions without any clear purpose, but have a sense that they are more important than I realized. So now, I am working on what to do with them. Suggestions welcome. Here or there.

    Thanks for the clarification. I had tracked down that it came from the ACC meeting in 2005 so I realised that it might have come before Synod last year. However trying to track down a summary of the decisions of the 2006 proved to be a fruitless task. Thanks again.
