Let’s Pray For Safeguarding
Almost 2,000 children in NI were identified as needing protection from abuse this year. Pray for these vulnerable children. Pray for ministers, designated persons and others within congregations who are dealing with difficult child protection issues. Pray for guidance and wisdom as they work together with Jayne Bellingham, PCI Safeguarding Lead, to resolve issues.
Loneliness Pray for those of any age who feel isolated and lonely, especially during the Christmas holidays when normal activities are paused. Pray for opportunities to look out for neighbours and friends, and to share with them the love and hope of Jesus.
