Prayer Triplets

As a Church we have been focussing on the theme of Prayer during 2021.

Our Sunday sermons and Daily Devotions have been looking mainly at this subject – and our prayer lives as individuals and a Church Family. It has been both encouraging and challenging! A good number of us also took time earlier in the year to do the Prayer Course from 24-7 Prayer with Pete Greig. The video series on YouTube and his book are truly recommended!

The Prayer Team at LK have been praying on during 2021 and at recent meetings together spent time considering the idea of Prayer Triplets. Some of us in the church family are already in such a small group.

We would like to invite all in the Church Family to consider this venture – but there is no pressure if it is not for you!

The idea?
To meet with 2 other believers as often as you need – weekly/fortnightly/monthly – preferably in person or via Zoom or Skype or other means – and share in prayer support for each other and others.
To keep a prayer journal and record your requests and God’s answers.
To encourage each other to grow in our prayer lives and experience God’s Kingdom will.

Please do prayerfully consider it all as we step into a new season of life and work together.
Ask God if there are 1 or 2 others you can prayerfully support/encourage at this time.
Give it a try for a period of time – 3 months?
Be open to being asked by others to join with them.

Please do ask any member of the Prayer Team for further help.
In particular Claire Hill/Fidelis/Lindsay/Alastair have experience in a Prayer Triplet.

Gathering for Prayer in August

Prayer is important to us as a Church Family.

You are invited to meet with others in the church family via Zoom for our monthly Gathering for Prayer next Tuesday evening – 31st August 7.30-8.30pm – when we will give thanks,
take time to wait and listen with God as we step into a new season of life and work together
and share in praying for others and each other.

Hope to see you there!

John, Susan and Alastair

Prayer Wall

As a Church we believe in the reality and power of Prayer.
A Prayer Wall is now available on the Kirk website.

You can find this in the PRAYER section on the LK website…and we will be doing our best to keep this section more relevant and fresh.

Please have a look.
Please add your own prayer whenever you wish or need to.

Each prayer written will be monitored first by members of the Prayer Team before it is made public, so anything private or abusive will be picked up.
You are invited to ask for follow-up if it is helpful or to mention if you wish the prayer content to remain private within the Prayer Team and not be made public on the Wall.

Please remember that the Prayer Team can be contacted through John and Lindsay with any request and they will prayerfully act on the content. The Team members can also meet you somewhere suitable if this is required. There is also a Prayer Box for any request in the Kirkgate Foyer and a Prayer Bench will soon be available in the Kirkyard – a place to pause with God.

A prayer….
Lord, we hand this new venture over to You.
We thank You for the wonder of Prayer.
Now we ask you to do amazing things among us through this Prayer Wall!
Give us wisdom and answers!
In Jesus’ name
Amen.
