Great and so worthy of praise.
We bow before You.
We lay our lives before You.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Pray for a church near your home to know Sunday blessings
O LORD, God of mercy, hear our cry and pour out rich blessings we ask!

Reflect on all that is said here and then Pray in response to this God
O LORD, our Great and Powerful God,
hear our evening prayers we ask
As we thank you for what we read
As we look back over our day
As we look ahead to tomorrow
As we name before you those we are concerned about.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Thy Kingdom Come #sorry

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 on a Saturday morning at 9.05am.

We are called today to pause and pray in confession…saying sorry meaningfully to God
For the sins of this past week
For the ways we have hurt others
For the things we have not done
For the love we have not shown in Jesus’ name

We are also encouraged 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.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done across our world
In our community, in our city.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
