Ten Days of Prayer
On 20th July 2025 we will say farewell to Paul and Jackie.
To prepare for the next season and for appointing a new vicar we are beginning by inviting the whole church family to listen to the Holy Spirit and share what they hear.
The ten days of prayer will run from Sunday 27th April to Wednesday 7th May. We are keen to enable everyone in our church family to contribute and are therefore starting at our Sunday gatherings and ending at our midweek gathering.
Watch Chris introduce the 10 Days of Prayer at the 10 Gathering on Sunday 27th April:
Here are some ways you can be involved:
-
Come to the prayer gatherings in Jacob’s Well and online.
-
Commit to personal prayer and fasting during this time.
-
Take a prayer card home from our gatherings on Sunday 27th April or Wednesday 30th April, write down your sense of what God is saying and bring it with you to our gatherings on Sunday 4th May of Wednesday 7th May.
-
Pray in Jacob’s Well with your Small Community and on your own.
-
Share your sense of what God is saying through our online form.
Sharing our prayer
As we pray together, we are looking forward to hearing from each other our senses of what the Holy Spirit is saying to us. Perhaps you will have a Bible passage, some specific words of prayer or prophecy, or an image. You will be able to share these in three ways.
-
There will be postcards available in church that you can write or draw on and leave in the box provided or bring to the gatherings on the 4th and 7th of May.
-
There will be sticky notes available in Jacob's Well and in church to write or draw on and stick to the wall.
