Welcome to Immanuel Highters Heath
Prayer for the week
When everything was dark
and it seemed that the sun would never shine again,
your love broke through.
Your love was too strong,
too wide, too deep for death to hold.
We praise you for the light of new life
that continues to shine in our hearts today.
We pray that the Easter light of life, hope and joy will live in us each day;
and that we will be bearers of that light into the lives of others.
Amen
Thought for the week
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die." (John 11:25)
Prayer for Immanuel Church
Heavenly Father
We are the family of Immanuel.
We pray for all our family members both young and old. Help us to use every opportunity to care for each other through this season of change.
May we always welcome newcomers into our Church and may your limitless love shine out in all we strive to do.
We pray for the Diocese of Birmingham in these challenging times as they explore your will for the future ministry of your church.
Help us to grow together and give us hope.
Remind us that in our watching, waiting and listening,
You are Immanuel – God with Us.
Amen
