God, we give thanks for all the lay people, who work tirelessly throughout the Circuit, and for the deep commitment of the stewards in our Circuit Churches who care for their places of worship in practical and prayerful ways.
We pray for the Circuit Leadership Team and for our Local Preachers. We pray for further development of the creative use of local people in owning their worship – either through worship leaders or the creation of groups willing to undertake locally arranged services.
God of our past, present and future, fill us with your grace, guide us with your truth and send us by your spirit, with new courage and vision, that we may gladly respond. Amen.
PLEASE PRAY FOR:
1. Pray for God to guide the various mission initiatives in our Circuit as we strive to make disciples and show the love of Christ in practical ways.
2. Bless the youth and children’s work in this Circuit as it continues to grow.
