Let us pray to our God of life and love. (pause) Lord God, you created us to live abundantly and to love others. Open our eyes to those who need our care. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. LET’S PRAY THURSDAY Nothing in all creation can separate us from God’s love for us in Christ Jesus our Lord! The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. LET’S LISTEN A reading from the letter of St Paul to the Romans (8:34-35, 38-39) Christ died and was raised to life, and now he is at God’s right side, speaking to him for us. Can anything separate us from the love of Christ? Can trouble, suffering, and hard times, or hunger and nakedness, or danger and death? ? I am sure that nothing can separate us from God’s love—not life or death, not angels or spirits, not the present or the future, and not powers above or powers below. Week 25 Ordinary Time 25 September 2025 LET’S RESPOND To celebrate the wonderful truth that nothing can separate us from God’s love, join in singing this song from Citizen Way, called Nothing Ever (Could Separate Us). Students with lots of energy might like to get up and dance to this one! LET’S GO FORTH May the peace of God guide us. Amen. May God bless us in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. 172
