OLM Prayer Group
The power of prayer is infinite. And no more so than now, amid this global pandemic, do we all feel the need to pray and ask the Lord for his help and guidance. OLM has started up its own Prayer Group which meets on the last Tuesday of each month at 8pm. This is currently an online event, which we hope will become in person at some point. The next meeting is on Tuesday 27th April. We come together for about an hour, during which we pray together, reflect on a specific scripture passage and then pray for our own intentions and those which have been sent to us. We would be delighted to welcome more members to the group. However, if you can’t make the session but would like to send us a prayer request, feel free to do just that! Please send an email to Judy MacInnes at olmpublicevents@gmail.com . If you prefer to keep your requests anonymous, we will of course respect that.
