Weekly prayer topics

Last Updated: 8th November 2026

Here we suggest focus areas for prayer, but please continue to pray for the work of our churches and missionary partners around the world (details on our website).

Church family news:

- Please continue to pray for those of our church family, including Steve L, who are unwell, are undergoing treatment, have had operations, or are waiting for tests or procedures.

- Please pray for those who are grieving.

Pray for our community

In our cycle of prayers, this weekend we ask you to include in your prayers:

- all who have been affected personally, or whose loved ones have been affected by conflict

- those who serve to keep us safe, including armed forces, police, government departments

- all who are fleeing war or oppression of any kind

- those who are at odds with family or neighbours, that they will find a way to make peace

Pray for our outreach, our service and our churches

This week we ask you to include in your prayers:

- those for whom the service this weekend will be difficult, as they remember loved ones lost in conflict

- the Little Munden School Choir children as they join us once more for our service on Tuesday

- our PCCs as they meet this week

- this round of recruitment, and for the person God will send to be our Rector

Pray for our mission partners

This week we ask you to remember the work of Operation Christmas Child. Operation Christmas Child, a branch of Samaritan’s Purse, distributes shoeboxes of gifts to children across the world, who, due to conflict or natural disaster, would otherwise receive nothing at Christmas. More information about all our mission partners can be found on our website.

Please pray:

- thank God for the thousands of individuals, families and community groups who have filled shoeboxes

- pray for the many volunteers who will co-ordinate national collection week this week

- pray for those organising and manning the warehouses where the boxes will be checked and boxed up for transit

- pray for safe journeys for those transporting them to where they will be given out

If you are aware of anyone who would like our prayers, or who would like the church family to share in some news, good or bad, please let Caroline know ([email protected]).
