As we celebrate the Festival of Creation in Christ, pray with us. 🙏 Today's prayer is available in plain text and audio formats at cofe.io/TodaysPrayer.
Holy and eternal God,
 you are the Maker of heaven and earth,
 you are the Word through whom all things were made,
 and you are the Spirit, the giver of life:
 draw us into the mystery of your love,
 that with all creation we may proclaim your praise,
 through Jesus Christ our Lord.
 Amen.

O God,

When you are discouraged by lack of ‘results’ in your faith, how can Scripture inspire you to keep praying? On #EverydayFaith. we are exploring people and places which were important in the spread of Christianity in England. 📲 Download the app at cofe.io/EverydayFaithApp. #PilgrimPlaces
A poster titled "Pilgrim Places, Holy Lives" features a quote from Galatians 6.9: "So let us not grow weary in doing what is right, for we will reap at harvest-time, if we do not give up." The Church of England logo is present at the bottom left. A minimalist illustration depicts a winding path leading to a small church building, with a pilgrim figure at the start of the path.

Pentecost is when we mark the birth of the Church and the beginning of its mission to the world. 🔥🕊️ Today we reflect on the moment when the Holy Spirit came upon Jesus’ apostles and followers, as recorded in Acts 2. 📍 St Lawrence's Church, Evesham/Julian P Guffogg
This image shows a detailed stained glass window featuring a vibrant depiction of biblical scenes, including the Holy Spirit represented as a dove at the top centre. The window is divided into three main panels, each with figures in robes with halos, engaged in what appears to be a religious gathering. The intricate designs incorporate symbolic Christian imagery and ornate patterns, framed by dark stone.
