Cullybackey on Friday mornings (07.30)

4) 1Church1Day (1C1D)- High Kirk is
piloting this new prayer initiative where
we encourage people to pray wherever
they are, for selected time slots, over
a 24 hour period. We have chosen to
do this on the fourth Thursday of every
month and trust that over time other
Churches will join us, so that there is a
Church praying day and night over
each day of the month on a continual
basis. Both Session and the 1C1D team
are praying that the Holy Spirit would
move increasingly among us and inspire
us as we pray not just for ourselves, but
for local and national issues of spiritual
and practical concern. We believe that
persistent, passionate and informed
prayer will bear much spiritual fruit and
be the bedrock of transformation and
revival.
5) United Prayer prayer meeting on the
3rd Monday of the month
Let us therefore be encouraged and
“Come boldly to the throne of grace”
Hebrews 4 verse 16.
Rhoda Barry
Disturb us, Lord, when
We are too pleased with ourselves.
When our dreams have come true
Because we dreamed too little,
When we arrived safely
Because we sailed too close to the shore.
Disturb us, Lord, when
with the abundance of things we possess
We have lost our thirst
For the waters of life;
Having fallen in love with life,
We have ceased to dream of eternity
And in our efforts to build a new earth,
We have allowed our vision
Of the new Heaven to dim.
Disturb us, Lord, to dare more boldly,
To venture on wilder seas
Where storms will show Your mastery;
Where losing sight of land,
We shall find the stars.
We ask you to push back
The horizons of our hopes;
And to push back the future
In strength, courage, hope, and love.
This we ask in the name of our Captain,
Who is Jesus Christ.
Amen!
(attributed to Sir Francis Drake-1577)
