O LORD our God,
Good and majestic One,

O LORD, our Great Creator God,
hear our evening prayers we ask
As we thank you for what we read

As we look ahead to tomorrow
As we name before you those we are concerned about.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Thy Kingdom Come #celebrate

As part of our rhythm of daily and weekly prayer and devotion as a Church, we are revisiting the themes of the recent Thy Kingdom Come prayer venture around Pentecost on a Saturday morning at 9.05am.

We are called today to take the time to pause and pray….in celebration!
For who God is!
For the gits He has given!
For His handiwork in Creation!strong>

We are also reminded today to pause and pray for the Kingdom of God to be evidenced anew in our day. We are invited to pray for up to 5 people – family, friend, neighbour, colleague – to meet with Jesus.
