Our prayer focus for the week beginning 6th November 2022:
• Tetbury Praying the Town: New Church Street
• The Parish of Beverston
• For all those supporting Ukrainian families locally; we pray that those Ukrainian families and individuals whose initial hosts can no longer support them may be found suitable new accommodation
• Give thanks for those who serve as archivists and all who help maintain our church registers
• The Departed and those who mourn their loss, remembering especially Svend Kold. We give thanks for their lives, and pray for God’s comfort for their family and friends.
• Praying for St Mary’s School: Year 3 Beech Class with Mr Walters/Ms Makin and Mrs Ravenhill
• National issues: for heads of schools as they wrestle with escalating costs and limited budgets, that they may know how best to put the children’s welfare first
• World issues: for the ongoing unrest in Iran – that the rights of women and girls may finally be recognised
To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul. O my God, in you I trust. Ps 25 V.1
