Mission Partner Prayer: BOAZ TRUST

Lord God, thank you that, in an increasingly hostile environment, the Boaz Trust continues to care for asylum seekers and refugees in Manchester. Thank you for their partnerships with other organisations tackling homelessness and destitution and for the new workers who have recently joined the team.
We pray for each person who has no choice but to sleep outside at this time of year and for all embroiled in an immigration system which leaves them in limbo for so long.
We ask that Boaz will continue to be given the wisdom and the resources to offer people a safe place to stay and to support them in the best possible way.
In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.

We pray, Father, that your constant presence will be felt by the housebound members of our church family:

Eugenie Nathan
Phyllis Morris
Helen de Lara
Olive Yarwood

Protect their homes and bring them support and comfort through other people.


Lord of grief and Lord of hope and eternal life, care for those recently bereaved.  Protect and provide for the families of the late: 

Pat Woodrow
Maurice Morris 

Please bring peace and restoration.

(Recently bereaved names are listed for three weeks. Please continue to pray for these families in the following weeks and months)
