Prayer Points

Joshua 1:9 is a direct command from God to Joshua emphasising strength, courage and trust in God.

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

Lord, Jesus, thank You for your patience with us; for not giving up on us during times of our weakness and unbelief. We pray for:

Courageous discernment for the next generation – As we gather for the Autumn Synod this weekend to seek Your guidance for the future of Your Church and the hearts of our young people, grant our clergy and delegates apostolic courage to make bold, visionary choices. Strengthen this Synod to rise above discouragement and to build a vibrant, welcoming home for the next generation.
Faith over our fears and anxieties in the digital age – When the world tells us that humanity is becoming obsolete, remind us that we are fearfully and wonderfully made in Your image—a truth no machine can ever replicate. Give us the courage to confront the AI frontier with clear eyes and sound minds, using these tools ethically without letting them master our hearts.
Courage, wisdom and restraint for global leaders – We lift up global leaders making critical decisions in conflict zones and international forums. Grant them the courage to choose peace over pride and diplomacy over destruction. Strip away the counsel of malice, greed, and aggression.

As a Church, we declare: we will not be afraid. Our future is in Your hands, and we place our trust in You.

In Jesus’ name – Amen!

We have a regular coffee and chat gathering at Northampton Garden Centre. Our next meet up will be on Wednesday 7th October at 10:30am.

Everybody is welcome to come and join us. The garden centre has a wide range of drinks, snacks and food available.

Pop in and enjoy a breakfast bap, a cuppa and a natter! This is open to all and we encourage those who don’t usually come to church too. The next B&B will be on Saturday 10th October, 10am-12pm.
