A Prayer for Our 2026 Plans

Heavenly Father,

As we step into 2026 and look ahead to the plans You are laying before Living Church, we give You thanks. We are grateful for the clear evidence of Your work this past year, where we saw so many new faces, and felt a strong sense of mission and community. Thank You for every volunteer, every team, and every moment of gospel-centered joy.

We pray for wisdom and effectiveness in our upcoming Workshops and Ministry Equipping & Trainings. May our efforts to strengthen a “bringing” culture empower every member to share the love of Christ with confidence and grace. Bless those who will lead and those who will learn, as we grow in biblical leadership, understanding of spiritual gifts, and thoughtful “outcome thinking” in all our ministries.

Lord, guide our staff and leaders, as they finalize schedules, manage renovations, and discern future ministry needs. Provide clarity and unity amongst all our teams, that every aspect of our mission might be aligned with Your heart. We ask for Your provision for new team members to expand our capacity, enabling us to serve even more effectively.

May our church truly be a light in our community, a welcoming space where all are seen and loved. We pray for a year of deepening discipleship, bolder evangelism, and sustained passion for Your Kingdom.

We ask all this in the precious name of Jesus, our Lord and Saviour. Amen.
