The prayer points for this week.


30th April-6th May
Pray for medical and nursing students at UU Magee who are juggling placement and study schedules. These students are often on different schedules to many others in their CU and other societies and so can struggle to feel involved. Pray that the CU would be able to serve these students who may have different schedules and that they would feel the 
presence of the Spirit wherever they are on placement.

Beside The Burn
A short  devotional video each day, this week we continue new series in Acts with the work of the Holy Spirit.

Let’s Pray For Moderator“They cast their crowns before the throne, saying, ‘Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory, honour and power…’.” Revelation 4:10. Pray that in worship and daily life, we may find joy in such a liberating act of love and praise.

Answering God’s invitation to worship  Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation’. Psalm 95:1. Ask God to help us respond to his invitation to find joy in him as we express our praise 
in song today.

Edwin and Anne Kibathi (global mission workers, England)  

Pray for the Kibathis as they lead the work of the Presbyterian Church of East Africa’s UK outreach in East London, Luton, Reading, and Birmingham.

Nepal, United Mission to Nepal Pray for Helen Johnston as she visits Bajhang District this week, attends the UMN Board meeting and General Assembly, 8-12 May, and for Dr David Rodgers, as he chairs these meetings.
