Pathway of Peace

Time-Out Tuesday and Gathering for Prayer

Following on from John’s message to us on Sunday morning…and the opportunities we have to spend time with God in prayer….and on this the first of 10 days in the lead up to World Day of Prayer on 5th March….

As a Church we usually set aside a Tuesday each week and provide a place with space – the UPPER ROOM – a place for time-out in these busier days. In these weeks and months of lockdown 2021 it is not possible once again to open and run this space….for the moment .

You are invited however to make time to pause and take time out…at this time of the year…perhaps for the first time….. and it doesn’t have to be a Tuesday!

However, this Tuesday instead of visiting the Upper Room you are encouraged to…..tarry a while with God, maybe a bit longer than usual……to wait…ask…seek…receive….

* Find a space to be still in a busy world
** For regular time-out during this month
* Private prayer for yourself and for others
** Listening to God – Father Son and Holy Spirit

You are encouraged to speak with Him….to listen to Him.…to receive from Him…especially at this time as we seek to hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church in our times.

You are invited to share in the Midday Prayers and Evening Prayers that will be posted online at 12noon and 9pm on various days on the Kirk website and on our social media pages. We are also encouraged to pray with others in our city and across our land at 5pm….focussing on all those affected by the coronavirus…..and during these particular weeks you are invited to join with others and pray for all those affected afresh by the new coronavirus restrictions.

We are all invited to pray with others in our Church family as we journey through these early days of 2021 together…..and to listen for what God is saying to us in these changing and uncertain days. You are encouraged to take some exercise by the Government..and we would invite you to take a walk around the Kirkyard and consider the Word for Today words and images from PSALM 121 at this time.

And in the evening…we come together via Zoom to give thanks together in prayer…to ask, to seek, to receive from Father God….to share what God has been doing and saying….to pray for others and each other….7.30pm.

A Call to Midday Time-Out

Tuesday before Lent

As a Church our theme for 2021 comes from John 15.5……Listening to God, in Prayer with Him.
It was the theme we took time to consider at our Focus Day at the atart of the year…..which was recorded if you missed it….well worth the catch-up!

As a Church we usually set aside a Tuesday each week and provide a place with space – the UPPER ROOM – a place for time-out in these busier days. In the early weeks and months of lockdown 2021 it is not possible once again to open and run this space.

However you are invited however to make time to pause and take time out where you are…at this significant time of the year….perhaps for the first time this week or month….. and with Lent beginning tomorow – traditionally a time for reflection and self-denial – you are invited to pause just now and take a few minutes with God….listening, asking, waiting, receiving…

You are also invited during Lent to share in the Midday Prayers and Evening Prayers that will be posted online at 12noon and 9pm on various days on the Kirk website and on our social media pages. We are also encouraged to pray with others in our city and across our land at 6pm….focussing on all those affected by the coronavirus…..and during these particular weeks you are invited to join with others and pray for all those affected afresh by the new coronavirus restrictions.

We are all invited to pray with others in our Church family as we journey through these early days of 2021 together…..and to listen for what God is saying to us in these changing and uncertain days. You are encouraged to take some exercise by the Government..and we would invite you to take a walk around the Kirkyard and consider the Word for Today words and images from PHILIPPIANS at this time.

Time Out Tuesday with Jesus

On Sunday morning in the Daily Reflection John reminded us to take time with Jesus..as he spoke of the tale of two sisters.

The PATHWAY of PEACE around the Kirkyard is now closed but you can still walk around the Kirk and as you walk and think and reflect and pray in these days know that God is still walking with you. You will find that there are prompts to consider from the Bible as you prayerfully walk around.
