At churches across the Benefice today for the first week in our September Season of Prayer the preachers took the theme of 'Be still'. The inspirational verses were Psalm 46 v10 and Luke 6 v12.Here are some notes from Rev Martin to help you think about this aspect of Prayer.
On Sunday 23 August Rev Martin travelled to all five services to preach, and he introduced the subject of prayer. There are many ways to pray and engage with God, after all prayer is a conversation between our loving Heavenly Father and ourselves.During September, all churches will be looking at a different aspect and style of prayer. If you feel that prayer doesn’t come easy or that it's not something you feel ‘gifted in’ then we hope by coming along you can find encouragement in a style that suits you; after all prayer is not for a ‘special group of people’ but something for everyone.We look forward to seeing you,Rev Susan and Rev Martin
