Lord, here I stand with a new horizon ahead of me. I know I am entering a later phase of life, yet I feel so much the same inside. Help me to seize each sunrise, and fully live each day. May I be guided by You, and walk into this new landscape with hope and confidence. May I engage with the beauty of creation, and connect with the passions, hopes and dreams I had as when young. My prayer is not to leave anything behind, but to walk forwards into all I can be, all I can enjoy, and all I can give. To this new page The next chapter of my life - Shared with You. Amen.


As you go my friend, you walk upon a bed of love, On which our prayers are falling softly every day. As you go, remember that our hearts will hold you close. You're treasured, and we will cheer you on your way. As you go my friend, you travel with Christ at your side. His light will show a path and be your guide. As you go, be hopeful that you're following your dreams. We celebrate this new season of your life.


May God's blessing follow you all as you find new journeys to travel. May you walk safely along the pathways of your dreams.
May his gentle hand guide the decisions you will make and the passions that you follow.
May your hearts and lives always reflect his love and truth,
And may hope be a light within you that you carry into each new day.
