Prayers

We pray:​​

• for all those parts of our world enduring conflict – especially Sudan, Ukraine and Russia

• that the peace treaty in Israel and Gaza will hold, and that a long term solution for the people of Gaza ensuring a just peace can be found

• the people of Gaza as they try to rebuild their lives

• all who are ill in hospital, waiting for test results or surgery

• bereaved families mourning the death of loved ones​

• growth in our fellowship and a renewed life in our church

• all of our Advent and Christmas events over the coming weeks,
  especially the opportunities to share the Christmas story with our local
  communities and schools.

​​

 Amen​

A prayer by the President and Vice President of the Methodist Conference, for the situation in Gaza:

​

Creator God, you breathed life into this world and us all. We long for an end
to suffering in Gaza and pray for freedom for all your creation.
Give to those in authority wisdom to act decisively for the good of all, so that
we may see a just and peaceful resolution in Gaza, the West Bank and Israel
In the name of the Prince of Peace, Amen.
