Take time to listen for God to speak with you at this time of day
Ask and seek and knock……and hear
Father God…thank you.

Evening

Reflect…. and then Pray as your day closes
God of Abram and the God of today,
My God, our God,
Hear our evening prayers
As we journey from today to tomorrow
In Jesus’ name. Amen.

UPPER Room Tuesday

Perhaps you make use of this weekly opportunity?
Maybe you don’t.

Perhaps you used to make use of this space in the past for time out?
Maybe you didn’t.

Why not make this part of your weekly routine as you step further into 2019?
If you are unable to attend due to work or family commitments – why not find a place with space and join with others in pausing to listen and pray with God.

The room above the Café becomes an Upper Room each Tuesday

Space
Sofas
Cross
Candles
Bibles

all to be used – or not

There are opportunities to pause and pray with others

And the Café is open from 9am!

You are encouraged to make this opportunity to pause and pray with God an active part of your church life and work so that together we may hear what God is saying to His Church at Liberton Kirk.
