Prayer Calendar for September
1st September
We think about all the new beginnings and change at this time of year. We pray particularly for our young people who will experience a new class, new teachers, a new school, new housemates, a new course, a new city, a new career. Be with them, Lord, as they and their families navigate the changes of growing up and moving on.
8th September
Today is Education Sunday and International Literacy Day. We pray for people around the world for whom access to schools and education is difficult, through poverty, distance, responsibilities or regime. We thank you for teachers and all those working to provide opportunities to those who so want to learn.
15th September
In our busy lives, we give thanks for times of leisure, relaxation and friendship. Help us share your love with everyone we encounter as we go about our hobbies and pastimes.
22nd September
On the 21st International Day of Peace we yearn for peace in our world. We pray for peace between nations, between people of different convictions, views or beliefs. We ask for wisdom for governments to make the right decisions about the support they give and the refuge they offer.
29th September
We pray for families of all shapes and sizes, for friends who are like family and for our church family. We thank you for these loving relationships and we ask for strength to support each other through our challenges.
