The Brigade Prayer
Members are encouraged to pray at least once on company nights. This prayer is the standard brigade prayer and is said all over the country.
'Heavenly Father, bless and guide with your spirit the work of the Church Lads' and Church Girls' Brigade. Help us never be ashamed to confess the faith of Christ crucified. To fight valiantly under his banner against sin, the world and the devil, and to continue as his faithful soldiers and servants to the end of our lives. Amen'
Some companies such as St James Brightlingsea,will say Grace at the end of The Brigade Prayer.
'The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us all, evermore. Amen'
