From the Bishop The Right Reverend Damien Mead Trinity-tide 2017 Dear Reader, This cycle of prayer covers the period for the Church Year 2017/2017 beginning on Advent Sunday 2017 and ending on the Sunday next before Advent Sunday 2017. I would like to thank Brother Juniper, CGS., for his invaluable help in compiling this year’s cycle. I would also like to draw your attention to the special dates listed inside the back cover. Comments and requests for the 2017-2018 Prayer Cycle may be sent to me at the address below. Every care has been taken in the formation of this prayer cycle but it should also be checked against the Diocesan & Provincial Websites for accuracy especially in the names of clergy and bishops. Any major changes to the Intercession list will be made to the version reproduced online on the Diocesan Website / prayer page.
