November Prayer
Prompts
If you wander off the road to the right or
the left, you will hear his voice behind you saying, ‘Here is
the road. Follow it.’ This is one of God’s promises to every
Christian. For he wants to speak his words of encouragement,
reassurance, warning and love to each one of us, not just a
special few!

Pray Now 2009
Pray Now is a collection of modern prayers that can be used by
all denominations, by individuals, prayer groups and leaders
of worship. Each year, our relationship with God is explored
through a theme. This year's theme is ‘Environment’. Pray Now
gives a place to start when you feel you have no words of your
own, and prayer activities that allow time to think and space
to listen. They also prompt action and movement when the words
just don't seem enough. Available at £5.00 in the Church,
or from Bill Webster 672347
