Prayer Focus Preview

 

Each week we place a prayer focus on our Home Page highlighting  a particular profession or area of work. To enable you to use these in your Sunday service at the beginning of the week in which they will appear, we include a preview section here. For ease of use, you can download a PDF version to cut and paste into your service sheet, powerpoint etc. This material is free to use provided you acknowledge the source and do not include it in any publication that is sold for profit.

Those who work in horticulture and gardening

 

Market gardeners, ornamental & landscape gardeners, allotment holders, seedsmen, organic gardeners, bulb-growers, landscapers, foresters, fruit growers, florists, flower arrangers, suppliers of fertilisers, developers of new varieties; manufacturers and servicers of horticultural equipment and lawnmowers, garden centre and nursery staff, agricultural chemical manufacturers, makers of sheds, greenhouses and garden tools.

Creator God, You have given to all humanity an ability to manage and tend the soil, in your fatherly care, please look with kindness on all who work in horticulture. For those researching new varieties and techniques give wisdom and care. For those managing nurseries and farms give insight and clarity of thought. For those who labour over the crops give strength and resilience of mind and body. May respect for the created earth and satisfaction in work be given to all.  May common humanity govern work relationships and may justice and compassion characterise the attitudes of all who work in the industry. So, may your plans and purposes for harmony in your creation become a closer reality through Jesus Christ, our Lord.      Amen.
