not only to protect them but also to make them a blessing to those who persecute them.
Wednesday 24 June. Pray for the elders of the united parish as they meet this evening to
focus on the various outreach projects of the church. Pray for vision and discernment.
Thursday 25 June. Ask God to draw near today to someone you know who is going through
difficult times that they may find peace and hope, healing and reconciliation, and fullness of
life.
Friday 26 June. Give thanks for our overseas partnerships with the congregations of Mombwe
in Malawi and the Great Church of Debrecen in Hungary and ask God to help us deepen our
fellowship with them in shared service.
Saturday 27 June. Faithful God, your love stands firm from generation to generation, your
mercy is always abundant. Give us open and understanding hearts, that having heard your
word, we may seek Christ’s presence in all whom we meet.
Amen
