January 2022
- We thank God for his help with our various Christmas events (carol singing on Zoom and in the neighbourhood, Christmas activities with the children, our Christmas services etc.). We pray that those we have ministered to would be touched by the Christmas story and put their trust in the Lord Jesus.
- We continue to pray for God’s guidance as we’re looking for a new pastor. We thank God for our Elder Philip Wells, who will be returning to a part-time position as pastor/elder this month.
- We pray for those who are suffering from COVID-19 at the moment (both in our congregation and beyond). Please pray that in his mercy God would grant them physical and spiritual healing.
December 2021
- We thank God for Philip Well’s full-time ministry of 46 years and the lovely thanksgiving “Special Tea” we had on Sunday, 28th November.
- Please pray for our witness to the local London Road area as we conduct several outreach events this month (e.g. carol singing in the neighbourhood).
- We thank the Lord for the measure of health and strength he has given us so far and we pray that he would continue to protect us. Please pray that the number of COVID-19 cases might not go further up in Brighton & Hove, that people wouldn’t be suffering from COVID-19 symptoms, and that lives would be spared. Please pray that if they do go up, we would be able to decide wisely which Covid measures we might have to take as a church.
November 2021
- Our Pastor Philip Wells, who has served the church faithfully since 1975, will retire from his full-time ministry at the end of the month. Please pray that he and his wife Maria would enjoy their well-deserved holiday.
- We’re still looking for a new pastor to take over from Pastor Philip Wells. Please pray for God’s guidance in this process and for patience as we wait.
- We thank the Lord that we have been able to appoint two new deacons this month. We pray for them and our other deacons.
- We thank God for our Gospel worker Mark Rayfield and our new church assistant Annika Klein. Please pray that God would use them to advance his Kingdom.
