Prayer Diary

Sunday 29^th September

This morning, we are thinking about what it means to live as a Christian community. Pray for our church family. Pray for a strengthening of relationships between each of us. Pray that the way we live as a community would leave an impression on those watching.

Monday 30^th September

Ballywillan Kirk Session meet tonight to discuss a way forward in filling the vacancy. Pray for the kirk session and the congregation. Pray not only for a filling of the vacancy but a renewed sense of hope after a disappointing congregational meeting earlier in the year.

Tuesday 1^st October

Pray for our world. We live in a time of incredible instability. The war in Ukraine continues to grind on with dark shadow of conflict between Russia and the West, the conflict in Gaza and increased conflict between Hezbollah and Israel in Lebanon threatens to speak a wider war. As always it is the poorest and most vulnerable who are most affected. Pray for peace, and justice for those who are fleeing homes and livelihoods. Pray for an end to conflict.  

Wednesday 2^nd October

GB and Little Treasures meet today. These are incredible opportunities for our church to engage with the community. Pray for all who attend both organisations asking that God would use them to draw more people unto himself.

Thursday 3^rd October  

The Bible study meets tonight. Thank God for all who come along to this and pray that it would be an opportunity for each of us to deepen our faith in Jesus Christ.

Friday 4^th October

Cynthia faithfully produces this diary week by week, among many other administrative duties. She also provides an important ministry of friendship to all who call in to the office. Thank God for Cynthia and pray that she continues to be a blessing to so many within our congregation.

Saturday 5^th October

Blaze and Chill meet tonight. Pray for our young people asking God to draw them away from everything that would be harmful and towards his goodness and love.
