Prayer


The Epaphras Project
Do you know someone in your congregation who has a calling from God to get on their knees and beg God for the spiritual maturity, Christlikeness and mission of the people of the local church? Or does the description of Epaphras stir and excite something in your own heart? Will you join the LCANZ's Epaphras Project?

Everyday and Seasonal Prayer
Need a devotion for a meeting, your workplace or to use at home? Everyday Prayer and Seasonal Prayer are excellent devotional resources: something for any day, time of day or time of year. With the addition of some appropriate songs or hymns and perhaps a short sermon/address/reflection, they could also be used as a brief order of service (eg for midweek Lenten services).
