Each week day this Blog contains prayer topics, articles, a short devotional video and a Jigsaw.
This week as we journey through Lent we are being guided by the book “Quietness & Trust” by Matt Searles. Even if you don’t have the book you can still listen each day, but the book will contain additional information including prayers and a pattern of worship to follow each day. There are also songs to listen to each day of Lent and a Lent playlist.
Remember that there will be readings Monday to Saturday each week with a break each Sunday.
There are also links below to the previous Blogs this week, so that you and catch up on any that you have missed.

Pray for the CUI team as they gather on Wednesday 12th and Thursday 13th for Team Days. Team days are a time of community, opening God’s Word together, praying together but also being trained to share the Gospel to students on Campus. Pray this time would be beneficial to the team as they gather.
Please pray for St Mary’s Teaching College in Belfast. Pray that opportunities for a CU would open up there so the Gospel can be shared there. Pray for Northern Team Leader Luke as he navigates this.
