Prayer Of The Week

Psalm 40:1-3 “I waited patiently for God to help me; then He listened and heard me cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out from the bog and mire, and set my feet on a hard, firm path, and steadied me as I walked along. He has given me a new song to sing, of praises to our God.”

This week we pray for: Cottagers & Environmental Services
