Let’s Pray For Moderator
Pray for the Moderator as he travels to First Portadown on Saturday for the opening and dedication of the refurbished meeting house. Pray that the event would go well and that the meeting house would be a source of blessing to the congregation and the local community. Worship that empowers ‘You are my strength, I sing praise to you; you, God, are my fortress, my God on whom I can rely.’ Psalm 59:17. Ask that as we worship today Derek & Jane French (global mission workers, Spain) Pray for Bilbao International Church, their regular weekly meetings and special events for non-believers. Pray for their new weekly men’s group which started in October. Pray for Godwin and others as they help to lead it, alongside Derek. Pakistan Pray for the work and witness of the Presbyterian Church of Pakistan. Pray for Christians in the country who are suffering persecution to remain steadfast in their faith. Pray too for the Covid-19 situation. |
