Intercession and the Daily Routine

Each group member is asked to write down on a piece of paper (from their diary if they use one) the church/community events/work situation in which they will be involved in the coming week/month. What are their hopes and anxieties about these events? (15 minutes).

Share the information in pairs (10 minutes).

Then each pair quietly offers the hopes/anxieties of the partners to God (5 minutes).

Share the experience of the wider group (15 minutes).

Are there some events to which more than one group member is going?
Are their hopes/anxieties similar or different?
How can they support each other? How can the group support members facing anxieties/hopes on their own?
