Thy Kingdom Come #help

As a church family at Liberton Kirk we have been revisiting the 11 themes from the Thy Kingdom Come prayer venture earlier in the year. We are pausing to do so together on a Saturday morning.

This morning we are invited to pause and pray…and ask for Help…to God, to Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Take time with Him

and ask His help

for yourself

for others in need

for those without hope at this time
