Thy Kingdom Come – at Midday – Youth Praise

As a Church we were part of the global prayer venture last year in the 11 day run up to Pentecost – Thy Kingdom Come.

This prayer continues around the world throughout the year!

Each Sunday at Midday we are re-visiting one of the daily themes….and this time we revisit the Youth videos and the theme of PRAISEas we watch and listen on this first Sunday in February 2023….
