A time to pause and pray in this season of Lent.

Thy Kingdom Come #sorry
In our land and across our world during the 10 days before Pentecost in 2017 and 2018 believers and followers of Jesus were invited to pause and pray for the Kingdom of God to be experienced and evidenced anew. This was a venture created by God through the Archbishop of Canterbury and others and will be repeated in 2019.
As part of our daily devotional rhythm on a Saturday morning there are 11 posts on our website and social media pages – at 8am – on the 11 themes brought to us by the Thy Kingdom Come prayer venture leaders.
Today we are invited to pause in God’s presence – and bring Him our prayers of confession
Please take a few minutes to pray your prayers with honesty this morning.
Confess the words, actions, thoughts that are brought to your mind.
Pause and pray for the sins of our city.
O LORD our God
Have mercy we cry out.
Forgive us when we hide behind our walls at Liberton.
In Jesus’ name, Amen
