Monday 6th June

Give thanks for:

• For the Life Explored course that has just started, and many from the previous Christianity Explored course wanting to continue to meet. Please pray that the Holy Spirit would so work in their hearts to bring them to repentance and faith.
• We give continued thanks and praise for the unity that we enjoy. We have an excellent Eldership (we have plans for training future Elders) and a wonderful Church Council who have grown spiritually. Please continue to pray that they, with the staff team, are united in the gospel and spur the church family on to greater love and good deeds.

Please pray for:

• For our application for the re-ordering of the church building, which is now with Isle of Wight Council. Please pray that they and the heritage societies would look favourably on this application and we would have building fit for purpose for the coming generations. We are daunted at the prospect of what would need to be done if planning is approved. Please pray for a good team to be formed, and the raising of funds would be achieved.
• That we would become more and more outward looking and and have a heart to reach the lost in Ryde and beyond.
