A Prayer Page
Prayer is at the centre of our worship.
Together we express our hopes for the world and for wisdom among our leaders.
We support our community of Leamington, praying for the homeless, for children, and for anyone in need.
We pray together for anyone known to us.
The Prayer Book
The Prayer Book is found during the week in the community room. Anyone who wishes writes requests for prayer at our Sunday service. This includes visitors and members of any group using the church.
The Prayer Group
There is a group at Dale Street who can help you by including you or your family or your concerns in their prayers.
The group uses Whatsapp.
You can submit a request to be sent to the prayer group here.
You can ask to join the Whatsapp group here.
In times of disaster
When people are likely to be seriously affected by exceptional events locally, nationally or in the world, a prominently-displayed A-board will announce the opening of the church for prayer.
A prayer for those facing change and challenge
In September, many Methodist presbyters move to a new church, and many newly ordained presbyters begin a new phase in their ministry. THIS IS A CHALLENGE and we pray for them. We particularly remember Tina returning in September to all her CHALLENGES as Minister of Dale Street, Cubbington and Kineton + the addition of a fourth church Radford Road. We pray for her.
It is the time of year when 4/5 year olds begin proper school. Some face it with excitement, others with some worries and fears. It is often the mothers who suffer most, seeing their child, who was only a baby recently (or so it seems!), take their first steps into the world. THIS IS A CHALLENGE and we pray for them.
Children and teenagers move school or classes, some moving to secondary school, which is very different and presents a CHALLENGE as they move from primary to a large and confusing building. We pray for them.
We mustn’t forget the teachers. We hope that they have managed to have a relaxing break before facing the CHALLENGES of the new school year. We pray for them.
Many young people leave school after exams and go on to college or university, or possibly into the world of work. Many of them will be leaving home for the first time, something to be faced with some trepidation. These are BIG CHALLENGES. We pray for them.
After the relaxation and warmth of summer bringing a slower pace to our days, many of us feel that life will becomes busy again, and there are many and varied CHALLENGES for us all to face. We ask for prayers.
The big CHALLENGE facing us at Dale Street is the ALPHA course which begins on 15th September. We pray that it will be successful in bringing people from the local community to explore what Christianity is all about. We pray for ALPHA, for all who lead it and all who attend.
All these we ask through our Lord Jesus
Amen
