Pray with us
Faithful and Loving God,
We give thanks for the life of your servant Queen Elizabeth,
For her service to our nation,
For her dedication to duty,
And for her faith in you.
Bless the Royal Family, our nation, and all those who are mourning.
Help us to follow her example of faithful service to others,
To continue to work together to serve and strengthen society,
Through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
Queen Elizabeth II leaves behind a remarkable legacy, strengthening this nation’s charitable spirit as Patron of over 800 charities, including Church Urban Fund. We pray that her example will continue to inspire us.
"I know of no single formula for success, but over the years I have observed that some attributes of leadership are universal, and are often about finding ways of encouraging people to combine their efforts, their talents, their insights, their enthusiasm and their inspiration, to work together."
– Queen Elizabeth II, in her address to the United Nations General Assembly in 2010.
