A church group is asking for prayer suggestions
A church group is sending out 5,000 invitations for people to suggest prayers for Christmas.
The Ignite group, based at St Andrew's Church in Halstead, will be praying for blessings for the whole town, but invite specific prayer requests from individuals, families, community groups or local businesses.
Return completed cards to the church, town council office, Sainsbury's or Solar supermarket, or email hello@ignitehalstead.co.uk, using the subject Say One for Me.
Join the Ignite service on December 14 at the church centre at 7pm. The group is aimed at people who are not church goers.
