“Our prayers can go where we cannot...there are no borders, no prison walls, no doors that are closed to us when we pray.”

Pray with us today.

God of the earth, the sea and the sky, As we look around us we see change and uncertainty:

The effects of the changing seasons on the work of our farmers, and the security of homes and businesses. The power of the sea on our coastline and the catch of fishing boats. The flightpaths of military aircraft pointing towards global political uncertainty. In our churches and communities too, there is change and uncertainly.

May we know your steadfast love, and that in all times and all places you are there. In the name of Christ, Amen.

Angy Long, District Chair, Lincolnshire District

We invite you to join us online as we pray for more children and young people to know the love of Christ.

Every Tuesday at 1pm (BST), the Church of England hosts a specific prayer meeting to see more Children and Young People become disciples of Jesus, by 2030.

Would you consider taking the time to pray for children and young people across all denominations and traditions or even hosting a prayer meeting in your own church or network?

Together, we can see the next generation transformed by the power of God.

Pray with us today.

Loving God, We give you thanks for those early Methodists who, “obsessed with salvation” and Spirit-filled, felt compelled to share with others the message of your transforming love and to demonstrate this good news in practical ways to the poor and needy. Lives were transformed as thousands believed.

Speak to us again, we pray; inspire us afresh, that members of congregations in the Methodist Church in Ireland may once again be compelled by the love of Christ to share the good news throughout the island of Ireland. Equip us by the power of the Spirit that we may not only be involved in practical and charitable action, but also be able to speak of the transforming love we have experienced. Amen.

Elaine Barnett, Lay Leader of the Conference, Methodist Church in Ireland

We pray for people around the world

Oh Bethlehem, house of bread, under your skies the angels sang their song and in your humble surroundings the Creator’s life on earth began.

Oh Bethlehem’s child, Prince of Peace, fill the world, we pray, with a hunger for justice that deep and lasting peace may come to the land of your birth.

Oh Jerusalem, city of God, Outside these walls your divine hands were pierced, eternity held its breath as you were laid to rest in a borrowed tomb.

Oh Jerusalem, witness to your Resurrection,

we pray that new life may triumph over destruction, fear, violence, oppression and death, and radiate from these streets to the whole world.

In the name of the incarnate, crucified and risen God, Amen.

David Hardman, Methodist Liaison Officer, Jerusalem
