Prayer for the Nation - Saturday

 


Continuing with the lockdown month of Prayer for the Nation, on Saturday we pray for all who are grieving, and all suffering with physical and mental ill-health.

‘Lord the one you love is ill….’ John 11 v 3 

We bring to God all those who suffer in body, mind, spirit or with grief. 
We ask that in God’s great loving kindness they might know God’s sustaining presence amidst their pain. We pray for those who are stretched beyond their own capacity to cope and remain hopeful – that in the roar of these waterfalls God would bring a sense of coherence, comfort and strength.
Amen



The Ipswich Disabled Advice Bureau is now based at Tower House. It is a local, independent charity, which celebrated its 45th anniversary in 2018. 
Founded in 1973 as a small drop-in centre, that became a registered charity in 1981 and a not-for-profit company in 1996. We work to support people with any form of disability, their carers, families and others in related fields, who live in Ipswich and the surrounding area, including Kesgrave, the Shotley peninsular and westwards to Hadleigh and Stoke-by-Nayland. They currently employ one full time and eight part time staff, supported by twelve volunteers. We are a user-led organisation, meaning that over 50 percent of our Trustees, staff and volunteers have a disability themselves.
