Join us for our 2024
Prayer Week
"And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
Ephesians 6:18-19 (NIV)
Redeemer Church has started 2024 with a theme of prayer. This theme runs like a thread through the history of the church with the first gatherings of this community almost 20 years ago being devoted to prayer. It is also one of our church values – Praying with Faith. The aim of this prayer week from the 24th to the 30th of June is to grow in our practice of prayer. We want to develop better prayer habits in our personal devotion. We want to learn from each other as we pray in small groups and we want to call out to God together in a corporate prayer meeting.
Prayer reminds us that we are dependent on God for everything, The act of prayer helps us to take advantage of the access we have to our Father in heaven. There are so many ways to pray – each one a gift from God. We can pray prayers of repentance, prayers of gratitude and worship, prayers for breakthrough and cries for help. Our hope is that this week, each one of us, will learn a little more about prayer and will be inspired to keep growing in prayer long after the week is over.
If you have any prayer requests, or would like to know more about the prayer week, please send us an email on admin@redeemerchurch.mu.
