Prayer Calendar

Tuesday, 24 Jun 25

God of hope, we remember our older friends, family and members of our church family, particularly those who are feeling vulnerable and struggling with health issues. Thank you for all they have contributed in the past, and for the gifts you give them now to keep working in your service and mentoring others. Thank you for 'Connections', providing friendship and fellowship on Monday afternoons.

Wednesday, 25 Jun 25

Gracious Lord, we pray for all those who serve us by working in local shops and businesses. It's sad to see our town centres with so many closures and empty shop-fronts, but thank you too for new opportunities, especially for all the charity shops which are represented and are raising funds for good causes.

Thursday, 26 Jun 25

God of all comfort, thank you that you draw very close to all those who are grieving, and to those who are suffering with persistent physical or mental ill health. We pray that they may each be very conscious of your comfort and strength, and ask that we may be faithful in praying for them.

Friday, 27 Jun 25

God of justice and grace, we pray for MP's and the House of Lords as they debate the very sensitive issues of Assisted Suicide and the Termination of Pregnancy right up to full term. We pray that they may recognise the emotional and physical damage to all involved, and above all acknowledge you, the giver and sustainer of all life.

Saturday, 28 Jun 25

Loving Father, we pray for our families and friends, and all those we hold dear, that you will keep them safe and protect them from harm.Thank you that you put the lonely in families and that you have created us to live in communities, to share deep friendships, and to support one another in good times or bad.

Sunday, 29 Jun 25

Dear Lord: I am ready to follow you courageously today but give me the strength I need to do this. Help me not to forget you nor turn from your ways, but that all I do would be done by your power and for your glory. We ask for the services this week to be so helpful for people as you build faith, build your church, and reach out to others. Amen.
