Philippians 2:12-13\nTherefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfil his good purpose.\nHeavenly Father, we thank you for Nick Wooldridge, our vicar, and his obedience to your calling. We ask you to bless him this week as he attends a diocese leadership conference. We ask for your protection upon his family. Strengthen them in their faith and work in them to fulfil your good purpose. Amen
