A meeting of the leadership team (Commision ) for St Columba's NCD takes place tonight.Here are a few points for prayer in these early stages:1. Please remember thankfully the Ministry and witness over the years of the congregation of St Columba High and the influence it has had on the City.
2. Pray for those of the former congregation who have indicated they are not transporting to the new church – that they will quickly find a home in another congregation.
3. Thank God for the provision of the locum Minister, Rev.Tony Livesley and pray for him as he seeks to bring God’s word fresh each week.
4. Thank God for the provision of a place to temporarily meet in Holm Primary School.
5. Thank God for the connections made by the Audit team with those living in the new Parish, praying these might be built upon as we share the findings of the Audit report with the community groups and community councils which are at work in the Parish.
6. Pray that as we start to think about the process of calling a minister that at every step we would be following the leading of God’s Spirit.
7. Pray for the leadership of the new charge, the New Charge Commission and those leaders emerging within the congregation; that they would be united and discern the leading of the Holy Spirit in the establishing of the new church.
8. Pray for the provision of workers – that there would be enough people to share in God’s work, as we seek to serve and bring the message of hope, love and forgiveness of the gospel of Jesus Christ, and that see a harvest for Him.
