Pray

For more than 200 years Pilgrims' Friend Society has relied on prayer for everything that we need, and time and time again, the Lord has answered our prayers and has kept us bearing fruit in and out of season.

Our founders not only sought to raise funds to help the poor, they also petitioned Christians to pray for their ministry. To this day we have daily devotions in all our homes and at our Support Office, praying to God for all that we need, and thanking Him for His continued goodness to us. So we really do value your prayers.

Please pray for all affected by the floods this week in the UK, especially in Scotland. Pray for the vulnerable in this stormy time, that they would get the care they need and reach out to their Heavenly Father.

Thank you, Father, for the fellowship we experience as the family of God with others working within Pilgrims' Friend Society. Thank you for equipping each one of us with exactly the attributes and skills we need for the roles you have planned for us, even before we were born. Thank you for the encouragement that we give one another. Holy Father, may we see this strengthened within the Society and as we reach out to others in churches and faith groups to share our knowledge and experience. Amen.
Louise - Cwmbran
Dear Heavenly Father I pray for a greater understanding among the young of the needs of older people and the realization that there is such a wealth of experience and knowledge available from older people available to help younger people in their own lives.
Patricia - SCUNTHORPE
Heavenly Father, may each Care Home be a haven of peace; a place where friendship and fellowship develop. So may Jesus Name and God's Kingdom be know and shared. Amen
Margaret - Beckenham in Kent
Dear Heavenly Father thank you so much that you have created according to your Own Image. Thank you Lord that you have shown your love to us as human beings the fact that You gave Your only begotten Son Jesus Christ to die for us on the Cross of Calvary bible verse John3 verse 16. Thank you so much my God that our names as born again Christians young or old are written down in the Lambs book of life in Heaven thank You so much my God for Your Unending and Unfailing Love thank You so much in Jesus Mighty Name. From Primrose
Primrose - West Worthing
Heavenly Father Thank you for those who have a passion and love for older people. Thank you for encouraging us when we hear people praying in faith for Christian homes to be in their area; here in North Wales. Thank you for the opportunities you provide to engage across the generations, whether it be in church, or in our local care homes. May we see friendships strengthened across all ages. Amen
Barbara - Caernarfon
Dear Heavenly Father, thank you that in Christ we are all one whether young or old. Thank you for those that are are actively showing that today by caring for those more vulnerable than them whether younger or older. Please would these people know success in their work today so that your love and glory may be seen and enjoyed by many. In Jesus name Amen
Josh - London
Dear Father Psalm 31 tells us that "our times are in your hands". Thank you for the long time that you have given to older Christians and I thank you for how I have been encouraged by experiences of your love at work in hard times shared with me. Thank you too for the shorter times that you have given to younger people and for their energy and vigour that spurs me on! But most of all, with so much going on around us I thank you that our times are in your hands, hands that created this world and loved it so much that you sent Jesus our saviour. Amen T
Stephen - London
Father God Thank you for all the opportunities to hear the Christian wisdom of our older church members. May it be that younger people realise the wealth of gifts that are available to them to encourage them as young people in their journey of faith.
Susan - Tunbridge Wells
Please encourage generations to communicate and have fellowship and friendships daily, instead of just on Sundays at church or for particular reasons such as the Jubilee. I pray that the community spirit felt recently is upheld and continued for all!
Emily - London
Dear Lord, please help us to be good children to our parents and good parents to our children, honouring you in all we do. Please help our young people to see the value and joy in spending time with the older generation and please help us in dispelling myths about stereotypes in all generations as you have made us in your image.
Fred - Bath
Please restore the balance of our culture, Lord, so that people of all ages may enjoy each other and share the experiences and gifts You give.
Louise - Cwmbran, Torfaen
I pray that the older generations will have opportunities to share knowledge and wisdom. That the younger generation will be able to share fun and fellowship and that all will live together in unity.
Vicki - Wakefield
God, please bless our friendships between old and young so that we can share your goodness with one another.
