United Benefice of St.Mary, Higham Ferrers, and St. John, Chelveston
From the 25th November Mothers Union invite you all to mark 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. Throughout the campaign, we join with over 6,000 organisations from over 185 countries to raise awareness of and call for an end to gender-based violence and abuse in all forms and in all societies. More information can be found on the MU board at the back of church, or online.
PRAYER OF THE DAY
An ordinary Thursday before Advent
Almighty God, we entrust all who are dear to us to your never-failing care and love, for this life and the life to come, knowing that you are doing for them better things than we can desire or pray for; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
