- Ascension Day – Thursday 14th May
Join us at 7.30pm to celebrate the important but under-appreciated Feast of the Ascension with a Partnership communion service, led by Rev. Philip Derbyshire. Everyone welcome.
Ascension Day also kicks off Thy Kingdom Come, which is an annual global prayer initiative, which we’ve supported for 10 years now, comprising 10 days of prayer for mission between Ascension and Pentecost. This year we will be asking all of you to pray for 5 friends or family to come closer to Jesus. There will little cards available this Sunday to help us do that, as well as Daily Inspirations on the website also helping us to pray different things for our 5 people each day.
This Thursday, 14th May, for Ascension Day, we will join the Communion service in All Saints at 7.30pm.
Do come and celebrate this special day with us.
- Confidential Prayer Chain
Our prayer chain is available to anyone who needs to request prayer – either for themselves, for a loved one or someone they know. If you have an urgent prayer need and would like to be supported in prayer, we have a group of people at church committed to pray for any needs which arise. All requests will be treated in strict confidence, kept within the group and anonymised if you wish it. Just send your request via email (prayerchain.mkv@gmail.com) and we will send it out to all who support the prayer chain. Prayer Chain members do not know who the other members are, so anything shared is never discussed in other places or between prayers. If you’d like additional pastoral support, please contact the Pastoral Team or clergy separately.
