Our prayers this month

Every week pray for our Church Officers, Elders, all who lead worship, those who provide and show the PowerPoint and work the camera and microphones, those who provide music during times of worship, those who prepare the flowers and those who provide welcome and hospitality.

Prayer for Growth: God of Mission, who alone brings growth to your church, send your Holy Spirit to give vision to our planning, wisdom to our actions, joy to our worship and power to our witness. Help our church to grow in numbers and in spiritual commitment to you and in service to our local community. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

15th – 21st March (15th – Mothering Sunday)

To ponder: Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. (Ephesians 4:2, NIV)

Give thanks for those who were there when you needed them and who stood by you when others let you down.
Pray for those who show kindness; those who go the extra mile and turn the other cheek; those who have helped others to value themselves and renew their hope in you.
Lord, the source of all kindness, fill the earth with your love.

22nd – 28th March

To ponder: Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. (Romans 12:12, NIV)

Give thanks for all who listen, those close to you and organisations who help those in distress.
Pray for those who are scared because they are different, and those who feel they can’t escape their mistakes:
Lord, thank you that you choose to reveal yourself to us and that you know us, love us, and sustain us.

29th March – 4th April (Holy Week)

To ponder: He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. (Isaiah 53:3, NIV)

Give thanks for all that God has done for you through his Son, Jesus Christ; for his death on the cross and that through him you can know that your sins are forgiven and that you are loved and accepted.
Pray for yourself and all that you will be facing this week; for the things that make you happy or sad, angry or full of joy.
Cross-carrying Jesus, help us to stay with you, to watch and wait and know that you carry us.
