Prayer Focus:
American Businessman and author Harvey Mackay said ‘Time is free, but it’s priceless. You can’t own it, but you can use it. You can’t keep it, but you can spend it. Once you’ve lost it, you can never get it back.’ east to west are blessed by our team of volunteer’s willingness to use their time to support the work we do. They support us in various ways, supporting students 1:1 and in small groups in schools, working with young people aged 10-25, in the Emerge project, or based in the office supporting the day to day admin of the charity. Our volunteers bring with them a wide range of skills and experiences which massively enhance the work we’re able to do. This is highly valued by both the east to west team member they work alongside and the child, young person or family they support. Please pray for:
Our team of volunteers and give God thanks for their willingness to volunteer their time and skills
Pray for safety for our volunteers as they serve in this way
Pray for potential volunteers coming into the organisation – that they would enjoy being part of what we do
Pray for Caz as she oversees the team of volunteers and helps co-ordinate their needs and schedules
Pray for our projects which have volunteers – Thomas Knyvett, Matthew Arnold, Emerge, Office – and that they’d be a blessing and blessed by being there.
