Prayer Requests

We believe in the power of prayer in our own lives and in the corporate life of our Church. We believe that prayer is a vital part of our relationship with God where our lives are 'in tune' with God through the power of the Holy Spirit. Our Prayer Ministry is available to any in the community who would like Church members to pray for them. See the Contact page for prayer requests.

You can share in a prayer each day by bookmarking this page. You can also access this directly from the Methodist Church Website by using this link.

Prayer of the day

Grant us, O God, a greater obedience to your will, a more fervent love for our neighbour and a stronger thirst for your word; through Christ our Lord. Amen.

William Tyndale (c.1494-1536)

Lord, our response to the gospel has not always been what you would like it to be. Forgive us we pray, and as we rejoice in our own experience of accepting the gospel message, give us a renewed understanding of what the gospel message truly is, an adventurous spirit as we try to share it effectively, courage and love as we engage with those who need to hear and experience it, and the satisfaction of a job well done as more and more people come to know, trust, love and serve you, the source and end of the gospel. Amen.

Sam McGuffin, President, Methodist Church in Ireland
