I liked WW's opening, so I just copied it:
Here at the beginning of the New Year, just starting in the Chatham Islands, we bring our prayers before God.
Once again I begin with the prayer I used last year:
My God, my Creator, my Redeemer, my Love Spirit pervading all creation, of which I am a part Spirit which moves within me and unites me to that whole May we grow towards unity May we help each other in our daily needs, earthly, spiritual and emotional May I learn to have compassion for myself and others May I be open to the promptings of the Spirit So that we all may live in peace and love and rejoice in the glory of creation. Let it be so.
Prayers for all, the quick, the dead, the suffering and unhappy.

Pat, a dying neighbour and her children caring for her at home, and grandchildren. Very peaceful and unconscious as her body gradually closes down.
