Prayer Topics

June 28th, 2011

Praying HandsPlease remember to pray for Camp before, during and after the event. To assist you in praying for us here is a short list of topics/areas you might like to include – please pass this around your churches too:

  • First time campers/staff:
    • we are delighted to have some brand new Campers and Staff joining us this year, but it can be quite daunting coming to Camp for the first time
    • please pray that they would feel welcome and settle into Camp life quickly and painlessly.
  • Another New Group
    • after the successful integration of the Friday Frenzy group last year, this year we’re delighted to welcome some young people from Loughton Baptist Church
    • please pray for our new friends as they anticipate Camp, settle in and join the family.
  • Staffing:
    • we are blessed with a strong team of dedicated Staff who ensure that Camp is well-organised and well-run, but this year we have a slightly smaller team than usual with a number of staff missing in key areas
    • please pray for those areas with fewer staff than normal, that others will be able to fill in the gaps, and be strengthened in the process.
  • Chaplaincy Activities:
    • we are proud of our Christian faith and it forms the backbone of everything else we do at Camp
    • please pray that the Lord would prepare people’s hearts prior to Camp, and would inspire the Chaplaincy team to develop a challenging and appropriate programme of worship, devotions & activities
    • pray that the musicians who lead our worship would be filled with the Spirit!
  • Safety:
    • everything we do at Camp, from travelling down, to putting up the flag pole, from go-karting, to quad-biking, and even walking to Church, contains an element of risk. Of course, we do everything we can to reduce the risks to a manageable level, but it can’t all be eliminated
    • Please pray for the safety of every element of Camp life.

We will also post any specific requests which come to light during Camp too (isn’t technology great!).

Please download a PDF document containing these prayer points and distribute them at your Church and to your friends and family.

Baptism Celebration…

Waters of BaptismYou are invited to join us for a very special celebration this Sunday.

Change your life. Turn to God and be baptised, each of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, so your sins are forgiven. Receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. – Acts 2:38

On Sunday 4th January, 2009, at 10:30am we will meet together at Lovat Hall to worship God and celebrate the Baptism of Aaron Elmer, and everyone is welcome! We were really pleased at Camp this year when Aaron gave his life to the Lord after a period of questioning and exploring his understanding of faith, and we look forward to joining with him as he makes this public declaration of that faith. Please pray for Aaron as he prepares for this big event in his life, and please join us there…
