join us for our gratitude week of prayer and devotions
12th - 18th october
We want to be a church overflowing with gratitude and thankfulness for God’s provision. Gratitude and a heart of thankfulness are powerful ways we can actively fight against entitlement and selfish desires, turning our attention away from what we think we deserve and towards the goodness and faithfulness of God.
We also know that prayer rhythms are valuable and important in the life of every disciple. A week like this creates space to pause, refocus our hearts on Jesus and potentially catalyse a fresh rhythm of time with him.
Our hope is that this won't simply be a week of activities, but a week in which gratitude becomes more deeply rooted in who we are and how we live. Let's make space to remember God's goodness, recognise his provision and cultivate hearts that overflow with thankfulness.
“Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.” Psalm 107:1
