Each week day this Blog contains prayer topics, articles, a short devotional video and a Jigsaw.
This week we ask, “Who Are You Jesus?” And we get the reply in John 6, “I Am … The Bread Of Life!”
There are also links below to the previous Blogs this week, so that you and catch up on any that you have missed.

Let’s Pray For Mental health
Mental health cases have risen significantly due to financial strain, unemployment, family issues, and drug and alcohol misuse. Pray that there will be adequate funding for our Health Trusts to provide services in the community. Pray that God will be close to those suffering from depression and other mental health problems.
International Relations
With many different crises happening across the world pray for global leaders, that they would make wise decisions and seek outcomes for the good of all people. Pray especially for those agencies and organisations which support displaced peoples in countries which often do not have many resources to meet this demand.
General Council
The 2024 General Assembly requested that a group be set up to look at the issue of admission to baptism. Pray for the task group as they meet and consult with others during the incoming week.
Training in Ministry
The Linkage Commission meets next Tuesday, 28 January. Pray for the Commission as it seeks to take an overview of the denomination in providing resources for ministry, especially at this time when there are fewer ministers than vacant congregations. Pray too for Rev Ker Graham, its convener.
