Thy Kingdom Come at Midday

As a Church we were part of the global prayer venture – Thy Kingdom Come.

This prayer continues around the world!
Thy Kingdom Come 2022 prayer venture will be running 26 May – 5 June.

Each Sunday at Midday we will re-visit one of the 11 daily themes….and this time we revisit the children’s videos with the Cheeky Pandas!
This week it is the theme of HELP – as we are encouraged to ask for God’s Help – for ourselves and for others
