Thy Kingdom Come

The Church of the Good Shepherd, is joining with many other congregations in the Diocese to keep 10 days of prayer from Ascension Day (30th May) to Pentecost (9th June). This is part of a worldwide movement praying for more people to come to know Christ and explore what being a member of a church is like. The Good Shepherd will be offering 24 hours of prayer on Wednesday 5th June. There will be different opportunities for prayer from 9am - 9pm and 24 hour prayer candles will also be lit as a symbol of our prayers through the night. Come and join us as we join other Christians in Scotland and around the world in praying for the coming of God's Kingdom.
