Being driven into the wilderness can reveal life-changing truths: what we hold most dearly shapes our very identity and purpose.
This year, Dr. Ree Boddé and Rev’d Dr. Hugh Kempster collaborate to present a thought-provoking exploration of the Lenten journey. They offer six reflections that aim to guide individuals in delving deeper into their spiritual path. These meditations touch on various themes, including the profound impact of love, the significance of sacred spaces, and the process of self-discovery.

Compassionate Lord, we give thanks for the dedicated work of the team in Vanuatu. Natural disasters weave through the everyday lives of those who reside on these islands. We ask that you strengthen the minds of the people through mental health first aid training so they can face the obstacles that continue to confront them.
Spafford Children’s Center, East Jerusalem
(CEO: Shahd Souri)
Give thanks for the work that Spafford is doing for children who have experienced trauma. They have become recognised as a leader in trauma treatment. They are now reaching out to Palestinian schools in Jerusalem to share strategies that can assist teachers and administrators who are responsible for helping traumatised children learn and grow. Please pray for this fantastic program and those who lead it. Give the program's leaders and staff within the school knowledge, wisdom and strength as they work with children who live under incredibly challenging circumstances.
PNKS, Cambodia
(Program Development Manager: Mr Leak Chowan)
Merciful God, we pray for your people in northern Cambodia. They rely heavily on the natural environment for their livelihoods, which are now under threat due to logging and environmental damage. We give thanks that PNKS is working with people to forge new paths by developing community groups that promote diversified livelihoods and climate-smart agriculture. Equip them in their mission and provide them with strength, wisdom, and insight.
Australia
Give thanks for the combined school service at St. Paul’s Cathedral on July 25th. AOA was able to share the work of our partner in Kenya with Anglican School Students, which was very well received. Please pray that the young people continue to stay engaged in the work of our partners and stay inspired to make a difference in God’s world.
Season of Creation has begun, when the ecumenical church comes together in prayer and action to protect our common home. Please spend time praying for God’s Creation, that leaders and individuals will take more action to safeguard, sustain and renew our world.
