Rick leads Morning and Evening prayer this week. Morning Prayer – Rick considers a passage from John chapter 18, verses 12 to 27. This scripture describes Jesus’ imprisonment and Simon Peter’s denial of his discipleship and close friendship with Jesus; “Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They asked him, ‘You are not also one of his disciples, are you?’ He denied it and said, ‘I am not.’ One of the slaves of the high priest, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, ‘Did I not see you in the garden with him?’ Again Peter denied it, and at that moment the cock crowed.”
