Thy Kingdom Come #help

As part of God’s Church we have participated in the global prayer venture of Thy Kingdom Come each year. This runs during the 11 days between Ascension and Pentecost…..and this year it will happen May 13th-23rd.

Each Saturday at 12 noon we are continuing to ask and seek and knock on Heaven’s door…..’Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done’…..and to pray for up to 5 people we know to meet with Jesus and to experience God’s Kingdom reign in their lives.

This week we focus on the theme of HELP as we pause to pray with others in our nation and across the world.

We are encouraged to pause and take time with the LORD our God on this Saturday in March 2021 in this season of Lent.

To ask for God’s Help in speaking to others of Jesus
To ask for God’s Help to live for Jesus

To name others in need known to us – that they may experience God’s Help at this time

To ask God to Help those who are struggling with Mother’s Day being tomorrow

To ask God to Help those unable to help themselves at this time
