Prayers For Living - Connect Groups
Introduction
Introduction
A series of 28 prayers to prepare and equip us for 28 everyday situations. From visiting a newborn baby, to weeding a garden, to struggling to hit an important deadline... As we anticipate Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent we build on our New Year theme Communicate! and start thinking about fostering meaningful interactions and being missional — how we communicate our faith day by day as living praying beings in community. In this Connect material we have chosen 12 of the prayers to focus on from the main list. Check out the Resource Pack PDF to see all 28 in the Daily Worship theme.
How can we prepare ourselves in daily life to be continual communicators of God’s love in the midst of the joy, heartbreak, and wondering of day to day living?
Let us pray...
SEEDS TO SOW: We have a 'Seeds to Sow' phrase at the beginning of each section. These are open-ended and optional and are designed for people wanting to develop their own ideas/resources in response to the material. Perhaps if using this material as a group you could use these prompts to inspire a time of prayer, or drawing, or creative writing? They are intended to be short and sweet, simply a starting off place for you and your imagination, be encouraged to tailor/develop as suits your group.

These discussion questions adapt our monthly themes for small Connect Groups or personal Bible study (look up the Prayers For Living Resource Pack PDF for more information on this month's theme). The questions are divided into 4 parts to correspond with the 4 weeks of the Daily Worship theme. They are offered as a guideline and there is no need to go through all the given questions in a single session, or in the following sequence. Feel free to pick and choose, or adapt to what interests you or your group.
