Tuesday: Our Local Community
Focus: Connection, unity, and supportive relationships.
Prompt: "Father, we lift up our neighbourhoods and the local streets we walk daily. We pray for true community spirit—that no one near us would feel isolated or overlooked. Strengthen the hands of volunteers, educators, and community workers, and use us to build places of authentic belonging."
Wednesday: Our Australian National Leaders
Focus: Wisdom, justice, and the common good.
