Pray for Big Alpha

Today
We pause and Pray together

for those who are religious
and those who are not

for those who enter the doors of the Kirkgate Centre
and those who don’t

for those who come to Church on a Sunday
and those who don’t

for those we know
and those we don’t

for all to meet with Jesus
and have a living meaningful relationship
with Him
and Father God
and the Holy Spirit

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
