Prayer Focus

PRAYER STRATEGY 2012

We will bring together a prayer focus sheet for each month with four different areas highlighted:

• Global

• National

• Local

• Family

We will endeavour to pray for these different areas as often as possible within:

• Each Sunday morning service

• New 'First Tuesday' prayer meeting to be held in the Atrium on the first Tuesday of each month, 9.30 -10.30am. The next 'First Tuesday' prayer meeting will be on 6th March 2012. All are welcome for all or part of the time.

• All small groups

• Personal prayer life of each individual member

The specific prayer points chosen for this monthare listed below:
