I hope that these prayers are useful, and that you are able to spend a few minutes at noon each day, as we pray together as a church family. Please do keep sending your prayer suggestions to me, so that we can make sure we are praying around the needs, burdens and encouragements of our whole church family.
“Going a little farther, he fell to the ground and prayed that if possible the hour might pass from him. ‘Abba, Father,’ he said, ‘everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.’” (Mark 14:35-36, NIV)
Jesus has shared the Last Supper with his disciples, and he now goes out to pray in Gethsemane. His prayer reveals that he knows what is about to happen, but that he also knows that his death on the cross is the only way for us to be saved.
I hope you’ll join us online at 10:30am for our Sunday morning service, as we look more at Jesus’ prayer, and as we see how God’s love for us is demonstrated in, and by, Jesus.
Wednesday Prayer @ 10am
This Wednesday, at 10am, we'll meet via Zoom for a short time to pray together. We'll take the first few Wednesdays as they come, and see what pattern works for us. I'd love for you to join us via Zoom, please email me for details of how to join.
We'll be no more than 20 minutes, which will give enough time to make a hot drink before joining the Virtual Coffee Shop.

“While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, ‘Take it; this is my body.’” (Mark 14:22, NIV)
The Lord's Supper, Holy Communion, the Eucharist: why do we celebrate it? What does it mean? Why do we miss it so much at the moment? How can a simple meal, 2,000 years ago, consisting of bread and wine mean so much to Christians in the 21st century?
I hope you’ll join us online at 10:30am for our Sunday morning service, as we look at Mark's account of the Last Supper.
