Prayers – week beginning 28th May 2017

Story type:

Join us in praying for Scripture Union ministries – for those sharing the good news and for the children and young people they share it with

Please pray for The 95 Campaign to bear much fruit.

Sunday 28
Pray for God’s blessing on The 95 Campaign, that he will inspire and equip SU volunteers, staff and supporters to share him with today’s children and young people who know so little about him.

Monday 29
This week, a Welsh language version of Guardians of Ancora launches – Arwyr Ancora. Pray this will help Welsh-speaking Christians reach out effectively in their own language.

Tuesday 30
Ask God to stir the hearts of thousands of SU supporters to sign up to The 95 Campaign, so that the next generation may develop a vibrant, personal faith in Jesus.

Wednesday 31
Pray that many children’s and youth workers take The 95 Census, so we can develop new mission tools to help them share the gospel with children and young people in ways that will help them to engage with it.

Thursday 1
Today is the start of National Volunteers’ Week. Give thanks to God for all the amazing volunteers that give their time, energy and talents to sharing the good news of Jesus with children and young people.

Friday 2
150 years ago today, Josiah Spiers held his first meeting for children in Essex Street, Islington, London. So today, join with SU movements across the world in a Global Day of Prayer: Thank God for the dedicated volunteers and staff who have been faithful to his calling, and for all the lives he has changed through their SU ministry. And pray for the many events taking place today around the world, including a Walk of Prayer and Praise in London, led by Janet Morgan, which will be streamed worldwide.

Saturday 3
Pray for God to bless those children who know him already, and to provide them with opportunities to share Jesus and his message of hope with their friends. Pray that The 95 Campaign will really help them to do this with confidence.

Keep praying
