PRAYER
Praying for
our Network
Prayer is at the heart of everything we do. Your prayers make all the difference to our work in rural Britain. Praying for us is a powerful and effective way of supporting what we do. Our staff, volunteers, and those we network with, sincerely appreciate your prayers.
You can use our prayer calendar to help shape your prayers. Daily pointers are updated regularly, but we also welcome your ongoing prayers for our work. We encourage innovation, enable greater collaboration, and the increasing expectation that God has yet more to do through the rural church.

We’d love to connect and pray together each month via Zoom. Each session may not look the same or take the same format each time. We’ll seek to explore prayer practices that will be beneficial to you in your walk with God and in your ministry contexts, as we move towards deepening our current rhythms across the movement.
The sessions will be on the 1st Tuesday of each month at 10am, lasting about 30 minutes.
There is no booking arrangement just scan or click the QR code to join.

OUR STORIES
As of April 2026, it’s estimated that there are 5.79 billion social media users worldwide, outnumbering non-users by two to one.
As a society, we’re wedded to our technology, with multiple calls for our attention from the devices we use.
And yet, there seems to be something else
going on.
The ancient practice of pilgrimage is enjoying a resurgence in the twenty-first century. Someone who is rapidly becoming an expert on it is Fliss Barker, the Church Related Community Minister at the URC in the little town of Wooler, Northumberland.
