Pray for the parishes of St Paul, Monk Bretton and St Mary Magdalene, Lundwood, as the develop a drop-in project in partnership with the Church Urban Fund. They are hosting a weekly drop in centre at their community hall to provide face to face help for marginalised and disadvantaged people – along similar lines the project at St John the Baptist Barnsley for which we prayed on Saturday.
Pray also for churches which are holding Money Talks this Lent, as part of CTC’s Seeing Change Lent course – for the people who will be engaged in conversation about the impact of the recession on their lives and their neighbourhood. Pray that these discussions will yield imaginative and fruitful common action.
