This week’s promotional discount

This week’s promotional discount is on my 2014 book Complete Collected Intercessions, a compilation of the numerous prayers of intercession I’d written for various books up to and including that year.

Normally priced at £24.99, this week, until 13 September, you can purchase it at a 10 per cent discount – a saving of £2.50 – using the code INTERCESSIONS10 when ordering the book from the Kevin Mayhew website. Just type the code into the relevant box at the checkout between the dates given.

Meanwhile, here’s the first of seven extracts I’ll be posting this week from the book, to run alongside this promotion:

For those who mourn

Loving God,
you have promised that those who mourn shall be comforted.
So now we pray for all facing sorrow at this time.
Reach out to hold.
Reach out to help.

We pray for those who grieve for loved ones,
struggling to come to terms with personal tragedy.
Cradle them in your everlasting arms.
Reach out to hold.
Reach out to help.

Hold on to all who walk through the valley of tears.
Minister to them,
and grant them the knowledge that you are with them,
sharing their pain and moved by their sorrow.
Reach out to hold.
Reach out to help.

Grant the consolation that you alone can offer,
and give them the assurance
that those who mourn shall be comforted;
those who weep will laugh,
those who despair will hope once more.
Reach out to hold.
Reach out to help.
Amen.
