​Let’s Pray For Moderator
Pray for the Moderator, now in his second year of office, as he is able to resume more visits to churches and attendance at various public events on behalf of PCI. Pray for safety for him and for Zoe as they travel and as they seek to connect with and encourage congregations and engage with external organisations. 


Refreshed by God in worship  
In these days when many are tired and weary through the stresses and strains of living through the difficulties of the last 18 months, pray that as we gather for worship we will know God’s refreshing of heart, soul, mind and strength.  


Global mission workers
Pray for the families of global mission workers who have young adults starting or
settling back into tertiary education. Pray for families as they adjust to the changes and that students will settle well into their studies, university / college life, and life in UK / Ireland.


Middle East
Pray for the staff and students of JETS as they continue teaching and learning. Pray too for Christian churches in the region as they reach out to refugees who are traumatised by recent experiences.
