PRESIDENTIAL YEAR 2020/2021

"As
this Prayer Diary is being developed we are in the middle of unprecedented
times in our nation and across the world. Everyone will have been affected by
coronavirus in different ways but whatever the circumstances of our lives,
individually or as a nation, these well-known words of Wesley are hopefully an
encouragement to us all.
During
our year of office, as we journey around the Connexion, we really hope to be an
encouragement to you no matter where you are on your spiritual journey. While
travelling, we will be thinking about growth, both personally and corporately
and seeking to find ways to help you do both! Richard wishes to engage in this theme
particularly from a rural perspective.
Our
chosen Bible verses from Isaiah 43:18-19 remind us that God wants to do new
things amongst us and to bring life and growth even in people and places that
seem to be dry or tired. Our theme also fits with the launch of A Methodist Way
of Life.
This is a great tool for our personal
discipleship and growth, and also with the Evangelism and Growth strategy, God
for All, finding ways to reach out to our communities with God’s love and to
make more disciples of Jesus. We are so grateful to you for walking with us on
this journey of growth and for your prayer support.
We
look forward to meeting many of you through the coming year and sharing some of
our Christian journey together."
Love
and blessings,
Richard and Carolyn
