Prayers for this week

Take a moment to listen to the still small voice of God within the bustle of the day which has begun. Find a quiet place where you can enjoy precious moments of peace in God's presence. Sit quietly and listen to the sounds of the world around you, both outside and in the place where you are. Breathe slowly and rest in God's presence......

Know that as you journey through this day, that you have a helper, a source of strength and comfort, the reassurance that we are never further from God than a whisper.

PRAYERS FOR March 8th. 2026

Lord, as you sat by the well and asked for a drink you broke some of the taboos of society. You led your disciples in a new way of living. So we pray for the leaders of the nations, particularly the leader of our country…

And Lord, we pray particularly for the Middle East, where war is raging…
We pray for those who have lost loved ones…
We pray for all those who have had their homes destroyed…

Lord, give our leaders wisdom. May they be people of integrity and people who lead with humility and justice. Reveal yourself to them, Lord, so that they may follow where YOU lead. Speak peace into their hearts and minds, Lord, and thus bring a swift end to the conflict, we pray.

Lord, in your mercy: Hear our prayer.

Lord, we pray for all those who are enquiring about you; those who have heard or seen something and want to know more. Help our church to continue to be a place of welcome, where enquirers are free to ask all the questions they need. We pray for anyone who is preparing for baptism or confirmation or attending a Lent group for the first time. We pray for children in our local schools, that they may find staff who can help them with any questions they have about you. Give us the courage to invite our friends and families to join us in worship. We pray for friends and family members who once knew you but now have wandered away. Help us to gently bring them back to you. And we pray for all those who may enter our church unsure of why they have come. May they find peace and a true encounter with you.

Lord, as we think of the woman at the well, we think of those in our communities who may be shunned by those around them, perhaps because of their race, their gender, their accent, their past. We think of times when we have felt out of place or unwelcome, unsure of ourselves and uncomfortable. Thank you for those who helped us settle: perhaps with a kind word, a listening ear, a non-judgemental attitude.

Lord, as you came to draw water at the well, our thoughts turn towards those who do not have safe water to drink. We pray for those whose daily journey to fetch water is fraught with danger. We think of those with no sanitation, particularly in schools where lack of toilets can mean girls miss out on some of their education. We thank you for the aid agencies that work to provide communal taps and wells and for those who build latrines so that more people can have the basic necessities required for healthy living.

We pray for those who have too much water, where flooding has ruined homes, crops and livelihoods.

Lord, we thank you for Lent where we are encouraged to get to know you better. Give us the determination to find one or two ways to connect with you more deeply: perhaps by reading, or by downloading an app, by giving something up or giving some of our time or money. May Lent be a time of blessing as we discover more about you. Lead us forward towards Easter with a new desire to serve you and learn from you so that we can rejoice all the more in your resurrection.

Amen
