Pray with us / WEC UK

Some prayer suggestions for the COVID-19 pandemic

Frontline workers Lord, give skill, compassion and resilience to all who are caring for the sick. Pray for wisdom and insights for those searching for a vaccine and cure.
Government We pray for those guiding our nation: Lord, give wise decision making and the creative abilities needed to cope with this crisis.
Friends, families, and neighbours. We pray for those who are fearful and who have lost loved ones or jobs. Lord, give your people courage, comfort, hope and peace.
The poor. We pray for relief and recovery. May the most needy be shown kindness and generosity.
Missionaries. Lord, we pray for those who live in affected countries: that they would be able to trust God in Christ, and be able to witness to Your goodness.

Online prayer resources

WEC has several resources to equip you to pray for WEC and the nations in an informed way:

Social media Follow the WEC UK & Ireland Facebook page. We have regular posts with prayer suggestions and encouragement during this challenging time.
WEC Pray is WEC’s monthly prayer email, full of material to inspire you and enable you to pray for the nations and unreached peoples. To receive this email please subscribe here.
Operation World is the definitive prayer guide to every nation, giving in-depth info on every country on the planet. For anyone committed to praying for the nations, this is a goldmine. Pray for the World, a simplified version of Operation World, is ideal for younger people and those for whom English is a second language. Operation World remains focused on long-term strategic prayer, but for this season they have added some urgent Covid-related prayers to their intercession for the nations.

WEC UK has a daily prayer feed on the App PrayerMate.

WEC prayer groups: During the COVID-19 outbreak we will not be meeting together in homes. We are following the GOV.UK instruction to stay at home. We trust that we will soon be able to safely gather again once the restrictions are lifted.
