NBA Prayer Requests

We are asked to pray this week for the Advent Season

Dear Lord
We pray that You would help us to experience afresh the joy, peace, hope and thankfulness of this Advent Season
We pray that You would help us not be distracted by the business of the season but help us to create space to encounter You afresh at this time.
We pray that You would help us to encourage those who find Christmas a struggle either through loneliness, unhappy memories or missing loved ones.
We pray that You would help us to make the most of the many opportunities which this season presents for sharing our faith in a gentle, sensitive and confident way

The next NBA Prayer request will be 29 December when we pray for the Lord's blessing and help in the New Year

NBA Prayer Requests

We are asked to pray this week for Berwick Baptist Church
Minister John Hodgkins
Thanksgiving
We give thanks to God that our church family has been growing over the past months, and that we are thriving as a church family in spite of the pandemic.

Prayer
Please pray that God will continue to give us the wisdom and
strategies that we need to reach out into our community and help
people come to faith.

That as we begin to look at renovating our hall in order to use it
more for community groups that God would help us in being successful in applying for grants to do this work.

And lastly, that God would raise up leaders within our church family
and bring to us the people we need with the giftings that appear to be
missing from our church family, which are vital to our ongoing growth
and development.
