For our GUC Community:
- We pray especially this week for the Palmer family; Christine and Damien, Timothy and Bethany. We pray for Bethany in her health and well-being needs and for Christine and Damien as they care for her and their family. We pray for John and Penny as they support them at this time and live away from home. We pray for peace, for strength and for health.
- We pray for our Minister Mark and his family, Peta-Gai, Rose-Mary and Wesley as Mark prepares for his surgery. We pray for peace and healing.
- We pray for other members of the congregation who have recently had surgery, who support others in need in their families, who live away from home and loved ones at this time.
- We pray for the congregation in its life, worship and mission over the coming months.
