Living Church Prayer – 6 August 2020

For our church

  • Prayer for a Senior Pastor. We know God knows exactly who he wants to be our Senior Pastor. Pray that God continues to prepare his heart for the job. Pray for our patience as we wait for a Senior Pastor to arrive.
  • Continue to pray for our Selection Committee. Thank God for the work they have been doing defining selection criteria, watching sermons, and checking out churches. Pray for continued patience and wisdom.
  • Pray for our Campuses. Thank God for our campuses. Pray for Nathan and Josiah as they lead their congregations, and prepare to become independent congregations in God’s own timing.
  • Please pray for our Ephesians series – that we might be transformed through God’s word by the power of the Holy Spirit.

For our Nation

  • Pray for our nation as we continue to see Covid-19 spread.
  • Pray for wisdom for our leaders as they make decisions on restrictions, and the impact – social, mental, economic – of these.
  • We have received a plea from our brothers and sisters at Kirkbrae Presbyterian Home in Melbourne who are affected by the Covid-19 outbreak. For the latest update from Kirkbrae, visit https://www.kirkbrae.org.au/covid-19-updates/

For our Mission Partners

  • We have received an update from Paul and Debbie Howell in the Philippines. Praise God for the release of a bible translation in the native language! Please continue to pray that people will be reached with the gospel. To watch the video update, check out the post in this week’s newsletter
