Week of Prayer

Monday 1st September – Sunday 7th September 2025


As we come into this week of prayer let us open ourselves to the leading of the Spirit of God about decisions that we face daily in our individual lives and as a church. Let us pray that our lives will continue to glorify God in all that we think, say, and do.


We would like to encourage you to engage with the organised online prayer events but also spend time in personal prayer over the week.
Suggested prayer topics are further down the page.
