Join us in creating a wave of prayer around the forthcoming G7 Summit in Carbis Bay, 11-13 June

Please remember…

God “is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us” (Ephesians 3.20).

Our Lord Jesus Christ has the victory and “our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” (Ephesians 6.12).

In praying we personally need to “put on the whole armour” and to pray for the protection so we may stand for God’s truth and that his Kingdom will come here on earth as it is in heaven.

Please thank God for…

• The opportunity to showcase our County of Cornwall to the world.
• The chance to focus attention particularly on poverty, the environment, climate change and the opportunities also of COP26.
• The ability to unite in prayer and Christians collaborating across the County of Cornwall, and the world.
• The concern shown by many across society, but especially the young to re-think our systems and lifestyles for the good of all.

Please pray to God for…

• The Christians to engage effectively with children and young people so they gain a sense that the good news of Jesus really is good news both for the environment and for them personally.
• Creativity and unity among Christian young people from Cornwall (and elsewhere) as they consider their contribution and responses to the G7 – for their voices to be heard.
• The meetings with senior church leaders in the Country to talk about what we need to do to strengthen coordination around the G7 Summit and COP26 – particularly the role of senior church leaders.
• Those involved in planning the G7 Summit, especially the Police and Cornwall Council.
• The teams advising them, that their guidance leads to fruitful decision-making.
• All the people who are involved – what their motivating factors are, and why you are praying for them.
• Those whose lives will be disrupted by security arrangements.
• The G7 Leaders and Delegates themselves, that they may be aware of the social and environmental challenges we face in the county and wider.
• The teams advising the G7 Leaders and, that their guidance leads to fruitful decision-making.
• Those who are planning protests, that their interventions may be constructive and non-violent.
• All the visitors and reporters planning to gather in Cornwall and the opportunities that might create for Christian outreach.
• The press and media – that reports will be accurate, fair, and uplifting.
• The involvement of Cornish M.P.s, particularly Derek Thomas, the local M.P. for St Ives.
• The proposals that have already been sent to government involving Christian input into the Conference or those on the periphery will be accepted and have an impact for the Kingdom.
