As students go back to school
this week, we pray for their year of learning and for all those who support them.

Lord Jesus
Thank you for this new year of learning. We pray for students, teachers & all others involved in school communities. May they be strengthened in wisdom, may they have the courage to face the challenges of each day & may they find you to be the source of all truth. Amen.

Please join us in praying for the people of Nepal following catastrophic flash floods.

On 26 August, collapsing glacial ice and rock near the Nepal-China border unleashed a torrent of water, mud and debris through Himalayan valleys. Communities in the Rasuwa and Nuwakot districts are among the worst affected. Hundreds of people have died, many hundreds remain missing and homes, roads, bridges and places of worship have been destroyed or damaged. Rescue work continues amid the risk of further flooding.

The Anglican Church in Nepal has asked for urgent prayer, following reports that pastors and members of local churches are among those who have died or remain missing. Several churches have also been damaged.

Please pray for all those still unaccounted for, those who are grieving and families in urgent need of shelter, food, clean water and medicine. Pray also for pastors and church leaders serving devastated communities, and for all those leading rescue and relief efforts.

God of compassion,
draw near to the people of Nepal.
Comfort those who mourn,
protect those who remain in danger,
strengthen those searching for the missing
and sustain all who are serving their neighbours.
Bring help, healing and hope to every affected community.
Amen.

On Wednesday, August 27, part of a glacier collapsed in the Himalayas, triggering catastrophic flooding along the Nepal-Tibet border.

At least 330 people have been confirmed dead, while thousands are missing across Nepal and China’s Tibet.

Alongside Hope will continue to stay in contact with partners in Nepal. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Nepal and everyone affected by this flash flood and mudslide.
