Please pray for:

• clear and attractive presentations of the Christian message amidst all the opportunities of the Christmas and holiday season
• Christmas family gatherings that they may bring togetherness and not strife
• those who at this time experience loss, sadness, serious illness, depression, or loneliness
• some to seek and experience God
• the Spirit of God to grant rest, strengthening, and inspiration to Christian people and their leaders
• the spiritual renewal of the New Zealand church in 2024
• those New Zealand Christians serving God overseas
• the persecuted church worldwide
• those suffering extreme poverty, hunger, and deprivation
• those ravaged by war, and those who work for peace
• those who lead the nations, and for those who lead New Zealand, that they may all work for the wellbeing of everyone
