Prayer Diary


INTRODUCTION

This summer, over 230 people will be involved with our holidays at Whithaugh Park. We really do need your prayers that the young people going would hear about Jesus and respond to Him in a safe, fun, and enjoyable environment.

The following is a guide and works on a weekly cycle for the 6 weeks prior to the holidays, and for the weeks themselves at Whithaugh Park.
