March & April 2026
Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the Lord.
Psalm 31:24
We give praise and thanks to God for all He has done for us by giving Jesus to be our Saviour. May we thank Him for the many good things we enjoy.
For Christian belief, in many parts of the world people are driven from their homes and find they are living in displacement camps where conditions are unhealthy and unsafe. In places like Sub Sahara Africa there can be little access to clean water and nourishing food. Let us ask God to be real and present to all His faithful people in trying circumstances. May God open up ways for needs to be met.
Let us pray for the persecutors thinking of the Fulani militants in Nigeria. It is sometimes so difficult to forgive some of the atrocities committed. May the extremists have such an experience of Jesus in their lives it will transform their attitudes and behaviour. Because of persecution in some parts of the world churches are burnt down but we remember the church is not a building, it is a people and we thank God for that. God lives among his people wherever they are.
As we look forward to Easter let us pray for The Songs of Praise in the Wellmeadow; the JAM Club; preparations for SU Connect; our connection with local schools and visits to care homes. May God bless our Easter services in church.
We remember too all who work as volunteers for the good of our community and ask God to encourage and guide them.
We continue to pray for our new minister, the Rev Michael McMullin and his wife Jana. We thank God for Rev Brian and his wife Esther and all they have meant to us in this time of vacancy.
Prayer @ Ten takes place each Sunday in the Meeting Room. All welcome.
