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.
