Prayer Notes from Friday 4 July 2025

 

  • Pray for the Sunday services. The morning service in KILWINNING is to be taken by G Palmer

  • and both services in AYR by A Cowie

  • ​

  • Please continue to pray for Richard M. Many of you will know that he was admitted to Crosshouse hospital last Sunday

  • with a chest infection. He is now home but extremely tired. He has an appointment at the Jubilee on Monday and another appointment back at Crosshouse on Wednesday. Keep praying for Richard and Trish.


  •  

  • Give thanks for the week Larry and Nancy Piedt spent with the congregation. They joined us at Hope Corner on Monday too.

  • This allowed for more informal conversations. They are now back in Atlanta, Georgia but hoping to return later in the year.


  •  

  • Remember those unable to attend the church including the three in care homes – Isobel S, May K and Irene B. It was good

  • to see Murdina M out last Sunday with her daughter Sandra and son-in-law Frans. It is increasingly difficult for Murdina

  • to get out but it is so good that she has Sandra and Frans with her and that she makes it out to the church occasionally.


  •  

  • At the prayer meeting in Ayr this week we were told about the need to call on the Lord. Psalm 116 was read and at the end

  • we sang part of this psalm. There are four references to calling on the Lord in this psalm. Pray that God will help us to call on

  • Him for congregational needs, our nation and the wider world.


  •  

  • Free Church Youth Camps Please pray for Kincraig Juniors, Oswestry Seniors 1 and Renfrew Kids camps which are all taking

  • place over the upcoming week. Pray for safe travels, unity in the leaders, and God’s word to be faithfully sown in these

  • young people’s lives. Pray that Godly friendships would be grown and fostered.


  •  

  • Pray that God will provide more ministers to fill vacancies within the Free Church as well as church planters. Pray too for

  • more men to take on leadership roles in smaller congregations.


  •  

  • Prison Fellowship Scotland This week is Alcohol Awareness Week. Pray for those struggling with alcohol addiction inside

  • and outside prison. Pray for wisdom for those running addiction recovery courses and for hope and healing for all in recovery.

  • (Dated 7th July)


  •  

  • CARE Intercede for the millions caught in human trafficking and modern slavery across the world; robbed of their freedom,

  • forced to work in miserable living conditions, and subjected to abuse. May many be liberated and brought to a safe place

  • to recover and rebuild their lives.


  •  

  • Tearfund - Democratic Republic of Congo

  • Give thanks for those in Tearfund and through partner organisations serving in the DRC. Pray for an end to the violence

  • in eastern DRC. Ask God to bring peace and for people to be able to return safely to their homes and lives.


  •  

  • Pray for Tearfund staff and partners and their families. Ask God to protect them and allow them to continue to work safely.

  • Pray for healing for people who have experienced deep trauma and injury from the conflict.


  •  

  • Free Churches

  • Gardenstown

  • Please pray for our congregation to grow "in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ", and that we would

  • see conversions amongst people of all ages.


  •  

  • Please pray for our summer outreach event, Good News for Gamrie, to be held on Saturday 30th August, God-willing. Pray for preparation, for good connections to be made, for good follow-up through people signing up to the Hope Explored course,

  • and for real spiritual fruit to the praise and glory of God.

  • Kilmallie

  • There are a number of primary schools and one High school near the church. Our schools work has yet to recover afte

  • r the pandemic. Please pray for opportunities and leaders who could reinstate this ministry in the area.


  •  

  • This past year we have been holding services across 3 locations: Kilmallie, Acharacle and Kilchoan. Acharacle is one hour from Kilmallie and Kilchoan two hours away. Give thanks that supply preachers have been willing to travel and we have the means

  • to livestream. However, it would be wonderful to see more labourers moving to the area to live and work

  • and to exercise their gifts in the church.
