May & June 2026
The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble.
He cares for those who trust in him.
Nahum 1.7
Loving Heavenly Father, thank you for your promise never to leave us. At Easter we are reminded that Jesus won the victory over death and all the troubles of this world.
Let us give thanks for our new minister, Michael McMullin and his wife Yana as they settle here beginning a new ministry in our church and community.
May we remember the children in our church and schools. Pray for the ongoing work of Messy Church and the JAM Club. Give thanks for the work of Scripture Union in our schools. Pray for all who attend and assist with the running of these events. Give all encouragement and hope as the Gospel message is proclaimed. Jesus said, ‘I am the way, the truth and the life.’
May our children find following in the ways of Jesus is the best way to live their lives.
Lord, as we all cope with the rising cost of living give us compassion for all going through hard times. Give wisdom to governments as they draw up plans for the economy. May we all do what we can for Jesus’ sake to make life easier for others.
Give thanks for Food Banks and all the provision they offer. May God bless the work they do and all who serve our community in this way.
Remember the forthcoming election on the 7th May. Ask God to raise up men and women of integrity who will make decisions pleasing to Him.
Almighty God, we give humble thanks that we live in a beautiful part of this world and for the most part our lives are quiet and peaceful. We remember those in our world for whom this is not so. You see it all, Lord. We ask for your forgiveness for all the ways we have got it wrong and we look to you to help us. As Peter said, ‘To whom can we go? You alone have the words of eternal life.’
We pray for a fair and just peace to come soon.
Prayer @ Ten takes place each Sunday in the Meeting Room. All welcome.
