This week our studies continue we continue the theme of Lamenting from Sunday - As We Learn To Ask Boldly. Lament can be a very positive experience as we turn from pain and suffering towards God. Each day we discover something to ask from God.
Let’s Pray For Dave Gray (chaplain in Derryvolgie and Queens’ University, Belfast)
