The work and witness of the Church in the diocese, in vale and valley,
in city and suburb, in town and village, is part of the unceasing worship
offered by the wider Church of Almighty God.
In our diocese, the mother church, Llandaff Cathedral remembers the
parishes, clergy, committees, specialist ministries and the people each
day at the Eucharist. The diocese is asked to pray for the work of the
Cathedral in its servant role and especially on those days in which your
parish is remembered at the Cathedral.
The titles of the Sundays and other days are from the Church in Wales
Lectionary for 2015/16
The daily intentions of the Anglican Cycle of Prayer are included.

A PRAYER FOR THE DIOCESE
Father, you gave us Jesus Christ your son to be both Lord and Saviour.
By the power of your Spirit, renew your Church in this Diocese of
Llandaff, and help us to bring the Good News of Salvation to all your
people.
We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

Teach us, Lord,
to serve you as you deserve,
to give and not to count the cost,
to fight and not to heed the wounds,
to toil and not to seek for rest,
to labour and not to ask for any reward,
save that of knowing that we do your will.
St. Ignatius of Loyola (1491 – 1556)

For me, kind Jesus, was thy incarnation,
thy mortal sorrow, and thy life's oblation;
Thy death of anguish and thy bitter passion,
for my salvation.
Therefore, kind Jesus, since I cannot pay thee,
I do adore thee, and will ever pray thee,
think on thy pity and thy love unswerving,
not my deserving
