Prayer Points 

Weekly Prayer Covering
Please pray for and during our various activities during the week. 

That every encounter with young people would be filled with God’s love, power and revelation. That the seeds we plant today, through conversations, activities, and support, will grow into lasting fruit.

Halloween Outreach
As we head out into the community for an additional session on Halloween, please keep us in your prayers. We will be spending time with the young people we usually connect with through our outreach, and we are believing they will experience a real difference this year. Pray that God’s presence would be felt, bringing light, hope, and encouragement to the places we go.

 

Open Hearts
We are sensing a real softening and hunger for God’s Word among the young people. Please pray that we would steward these opportunities well, helping them grow in discipleship and faith. As behaviours are being challenged and boundaries relearned, we long for the sense of family they are experiencing, to become a doorway for Jesus to enter their lives. Pray that He would continue to move powerfully, drawing many closer to Him.

Asylum Seekers
As the world around us grows increasingly hostile, please pray for the asylum seekers we walk alongside every week. Pray that our relationships with them would deepen, and that we would have wisdom and compassion to show God’s love in tangible ways. May we be a steady source of hope and care, reflecting Jesus’ heart for peace and belonging, in a world that can feel uncertain and unwelcoming.


Phase 2  - Youth Hub

We are encouraged to see steady progress with Phase 2 and can really sense the Lord’s hand in the timing of each step. Conversations are deepening, momentum is building, and we’re beginning to see things come together that felt far off, even a few months ago.

Please continue to pray for:

  • Provision – that the funds would be released at just the right time and for favour with funding applications and letters to businesses.

  • Wisdom – to steward each opportunity well and keep in step with God’s leading.

Thank you for standing with us as this vision moves closer to becoming reality.

Bible Study
We are beginning a new topic in one of our Bible studies, and we are believing it will be a time of real transformation. Please pray that as young people engage with this series, their hearts would be softened, their hunger for God’s Word would grow, and they would receive a deep revelation of Jesus’ desire and love for them. Pray that their relationship with Him would deepen in a lasting way, and that the sessions would be filled with the Holy Spirit, bringing breakthrough and fresh revelation.


Chloe at Court Field's
Please continue to pray for Chloe and all that she is doing at Court Fields School. That she would have freedom to follow the Lord’s prompting with young people, and be filled with wisdom, compassion, and courage to bring life and hope into every situation.
