Prayer about work.

Does unemployment, under-employment, searching for work, wanting career guidance, problem at work, business struggling, overwork, or work-life balance register as an issue for you or someone you know? Then let's get together and pray about it. Meet after this morning's service in the Kings Room downstairs near the prayer corner to pray in 2s and 3s for around 15 minutes.
