For who You are

Prayer Wall 2021-2022
As we journey from 2021 into 2022 is there a prayer that sums up your journey with God? Is there someone you would like prayer for?
The Prayer Wall on the Kirk website is available for you.
The Prayer Team will see your request and will support you/another in prayer at this time.
You can request for your prayer not to be made public.
You are invited to post a prayer at this significant time of the year – and trust God for His answer and help and blessing.
Daily Devotions for JANUARY 2022
From Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus and an apostle chosen and called by God to preach his Good News.
Romans 1 verse 1
During 2022 we will be looking daily at the theme of GOOD NEWS as we journey with Paul through his letter to the ROMANS – and pausing at our times of Midday Devotion to pray for others in our church family, our city and our world.
We will also focus on ISAIAH in the Summer weeks and make time for Lent, Easter, Thy Kingdom Come, Advent and Christmas 2022!
It is all about JESUS in 2022!
So take time…make time…and chew over God’s written Word with Him as we consider God’s Good News with Paul and the Romans. We are all encouraged to listen for God’s voice and make our response as we journey together in our ‘rhythm of devotion’ through this coming year.
These Devotions are but one way to feed on God’s Word in the morning, at midday, in the evening… to pray with Him continually through the day and even to share with others the treasures or hurdles you discover.
The Church website and Facebook page (even on a handy mobile) provide a fuller daily devotional page. However it all follows the pattern below which the information provided fits into, based on the Kirk’s origins of the Celtic and Northumbrian traditions which we started as a church family in 2015.

Our Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be Your Name.
Your kingdom come
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our sins
As we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory.
Now and for ever
Amen
