It’s time to enlist - your country needs your prayers.
Next week sees the 2008 Week of Prayer for Parliament and Government in the UK.
It starts on Tuesday 5 May and ends on Sunday 11 May, which is the Global Day of Prayer, an event Tearfund is supporting.
The Week of Prayer for Parliament and Government seeks to get Christians praying for those with responsibility for governing in the UK.
The focus will be on praying specifically for our leaders, our government, our parliament, our political system and for God’s will in our politics.
At Westminster, it’ll bring together MPs, peers and staff from each of the major political parties, as well as Christian civil servants from across Whitehall.
They’ll be taking part in various events such as large and small prayer meetings, worship events and daily prayer walks.
Please support this week with your prayers.
- Pray for our political leaders to show wisdom in their law-making.
- Thank God for religious freedom to worship, pray and have fellowship together.
- Pray for an effective Christian presence and influence in political debate.
