This week we pray for:

• For all congregations and ministry centres to be communities of connection which are kind and compassionate to one another
• In thankfulness to all that have contributed in bringing the Synod meeting together - the support staff for administration and for those taking minutes, and those who continue to provide technology and communications
• For those members who continue to discern important matters
• For all Presbyteries.
