Prayer Diary

Church Prayer Diary - June 2026

Pray for all children and young people making a move this summer

Mission Focus – GenR8

GenR8 plays a significant role in the spiritual and moral life of local schools, offering creative, community-rooted Christian input that reaches tens of thousands of children each year.

Please pray for the Transition Workshops (“It's Your Move” and “Cool Choices”) – sessions supporting Year 6 pupils as they prepare for secondary school.

GenR8 is one of the missions which St John's supports through prayer and through regular financial donations.

For more information: GenR8 Website

Prayer for the Community

Living God,
Draw us deeper into your love;
Jesus our Lord,
Send us to care and serve;
Holy Spirit,
Make us heralds of good news.
Stir us, strengthen us, teach and inspire us to live your love
with generosity and joy,
imagination and courage;
for the sake of your world and in the name of Jesus. Amen.
