Call to Prayer

An invitation to all who call Brougham Place Uniting Church their spiritual home.

We invite you to join us in a Season of Prayer.

Over Easter, we invite you to pray for our Church community, as once again we recall the Story central to our Christian faith. Please pray for all those preparing for our worship services and all those who will come (in person and online). Please pray for all those travelling over the Easter break.

Following the decisions we made at our recent AGM (see below), we find ourselves in a liminal (in-between) time as we discern together the future that God is leading us to. May we look to our God for clear discernment and may we hold:

• our Church Council in prayer as they do the work we have asked them to do. We pray for them as they form a new subcommittee and appoint a consultant.
• our Presbytery (Wimala) in prayer as they support us and journey alongside us.
• all of our ministry areas and leaders in prayer as we continue serving our God through this congregation in worship, witness and service.
• each other in prayer as we each respond differently to being in a liminal (in-between) and uncertain time.

Isaiah 43:18-19

Do not remember the former things or consider the things of old. I am about to do a new thing; now it springs forth; do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.	Don’t revel only in the past, or spend all your time recounting the victories of days gone by. Watch closely: I am preparing something new; it’s happening now, even as I speak, and you’re about to see it. I am preparing a way through the desert; Waters will flow where there had been none.
New Revised Standard Version Updated Ed	The Voice

As we look toward Easter, may we remember with hope, that our God is a God of Resurrection Life.

We are in Good Hands.
