The Acting Dean, Rev Dr Graeme Chatfield, and staff of the Australian College of Theology take this opportunity to pray that all of us might in this time of disruption and uncertainty know and experience the grace, mercy and peace of Christ not in the limited ways we as humans often limit God, but in the extravagant way God has demonstrated his love towards all people through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour.

We would also like to share this prayer with you written by our Publishing Manager, Rev Megan Powell du Toit:

Our Lord,

Like the disciples who ran away
And shut themselves in a room
We are grief-stricken and anxious
With good reason, as our world sickens
Like the women who went to the tomb
We long to show love at this time
Yet as we feel lonely and isolated
We remember your forsakenness
And as we struggle to hope
We remember you defeated death
As we long to be present face to face
We know that now through you
We will see God face to face
And dwell with God’s people forever
This Easter, renew our hope
That we may witness to your good news
