Prayer Requests from church members:

We have been reaching out to different church members to see whether they have prayer requests.

The prevailing themes have been:

• Prayer for our children, that they would follow Jesus and walk with Him in their daily life.
• For the Holy Spirit to convict our unbelieving family members of His love and mercy and that they would be keen to be one of His flock.
• Give thanks for Jonathan's faithful leadership over many years, and ask God to fill him with a deep sense of joy and hope in Christ.

In addition:

• Please keep the upcoming Good Friday Festival in your prayers. Remember the planning team and volunteers as they work diligently to organise and manage all the necessary arrangements. Pray for wisdom, unity, and strength as they handle the many details, and for a successful and impactful event that touches the hearts of those who attend.

• Praise God for His faithfulness in answering our prayers by providing an Assistant Minister. Please be praying for St Matt’s as they farewell the Vella family and adjust to church-life without them. And also pray for Andrew and Hannah and their kids as they join us, that we will welcome them and be ready to grow with them to maturity in Christ.

From Glen and Beth McDonald - BCA Roxby Downs:

• Please pray for our planned 'Just Start Talking' Course in preparation for Hope25 and that parishioners will be excited to personally invite people to events and journey with them, sharing their faith.

• Pray for wisdom in planning for HOPE25 and for excitement within our church to proclaim the hope found only in Jesus. Pray for creativity for us as a church to engage and connect with people.

• Thank God for the new people who have joined our church and are growing in faith through Bible Study Community Groups. Pray for wisdom in integrating the new people into the life of the church and equipping them to serve God and His people for a lifetime.
