WEDNESDAY WEEK 3 LENT Let us pray Let us pray for God’s protection. (pause) O God, whose love never fails, keep us from danger and provide for all our needs. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. The word of God A reading from the book of the prophet Isaiah (42:16) The Lord says this: I will lead the blind on roads they have never seen, and I will guide them on paths they have never travelled. Their road is dark and rough, but I will give light and make the road smooth. This is a promise I will never break. The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. RESPONSE As we listen to today’s reading, we give thanks to God for protecting us as we travel to and from school, and the other places we need to go each day. God promises to be with us on all of life’s journeys and to make our paths smooth. After you watch this video together, say a special prayer for children around the world who have very dangerous trips to make to school each day, and ask God to keep them safe. Go forth May God bless us and protect us and bring us to eternal life. Amen. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. 26 MARCH 2025 43
