The Prisons Week Prayer
Lord you offer freedom to all people. We pray for those in prison. Break the bonds of fear and isolation that exist. Support with your love prisoners and their families and friends, prison staff and all who care. Heal those who have been wounded by the actions of others, especially the victims of crime. Help us to forgive one another, to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly together with Christ in His strength and in His Spirit, now and every day. Amen.

I want to remind you about the end of life — everything will come to an end, The only thing that will remain is the happiness of having been faithful to God’s law, of having loved our neighbour … served them in their time of need and not taken advantage … to abuse their dignity and rights. Yes, the only thing that will remain is the joy that will be ours at the hour of our death when we present ourselves before the tribunal of God and we hear the precious words spoken by those divine lips: Come in! Come blessed of my Father and take possession of the Kingdom of Heaven for you were charitable and were not rude. Therefore what you did for one of these least brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me. Mgr Oscar Romero 1st Nov 1977 http://www.romerotrust.org.uk/homilies/
