As mentioned in an earlier post, 25 November 2017 has been earmarked as a National Day of Prayer for the Church of Scotland, as part of a year-long call for prayer under the banner of Together We Pray. You too are invited to stand with us and remember the Church of Scotland in your prayers at this time.
Pray for the decision makers
Pray for the dreamers and the visionaries
Pray for the prophets and the peace makers
Pray for the listeners and the talkers
Pray for the thinkers and the doers
Pray for the shouters and the whisperers
Pray for young and the old
Pray for the rural and the urban communities
A prayer for the church
God of our past, present and future, we seek direction for the life of our Church and for ourselves, and remember that all concerns and anxieties should be placed within Your hand.
Where we have heard Your voice may we step into the future that appears with all the uncertainties and unknowns to be explored.
Keep our eyes open to places of need, and our ears open to the call to new ways of being Your people.
Amen
