Prayer focus for the week beginning 16th January 2022:
• Tetbury Praying the Town: Southfield
• St Marys PCC on Tuesday 18th January
• The Parish of Shipton Moyne
• The Departed and those who mourn their loss, remembering especially Sheila Little and Claire Tomlinson. We give thanks for their lives, and pray for God’s comfort for their family and friends.
• Praying for St Mary’s School: Reception Cherry Class with Mrs Boswell and Mrs Bell
• For all carers, that they may deliver care responsibly, with good humour and compassion, and that more people will come forward to serve in this way
• National issues: for all families struggling to pay rising energy bills – may the government and energy providers have wisdom to know how best to handle these challenges
O Lord, I call upon you…give ear to my voice when I call to you! Let my prayer be counted as incense before you. Ps.141 Vs.1-2
Are you, or someone you know, in need of prayer? You are welcome to hang your prayer request on the prayer tree in the prayer corner at the front of St Marys church
