Fellowship
If you sense yourself becoming isolated or are feeling particularly lonely, do make sure you do not suffer alone but contact friends or family. They may not be able to visit, but you will feel better for having spoken. Equally, if you know of others who may be in this position, please do make contact to see if you can help. Ask people how they are and wait for an answer.
A prayer for our Benefice
“Almighty God we thank you that you are leading our benefice into a new season of our shared life together. We pray for our Ministry Team; for Samuel our Vicar, and for Graham, Mary, Linnea and David as together they lead us in worship and prayer.
We pray for our Churchwardens: David, Kathryn Paul and Nico. Be with them and our PCCs as they serve you faithfully by supporting our Churches.
We pray also for ourselves, asking that you will be with us in our lives in such a way that our communities of Penn and Tylers Green may see a glimpse of your love made known to us through your son, Jesus Christ. Amen”
