VERSE OF THE DAY:

"When he had received the drink, Jesus said, "It is finished." With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit." John 19:30 (NIV)

How wonderful it is that there is nothing else we need to do to be saved apart from placing our faith in Jesus. He has done it all. Our debt is paid.

WEEKLY LIVE PRAYER SESSION: Thursday evening at 8.15pm. Available on all platforms.

Praying together is important because it fosters a sense of community, strengthens faith, and invites the presence of the Holy Spirit. It also provides support, encouragement, and a space for shared worship and unity. Praying together helps us to see more of Christ, grow in faith, and be empowered to share the word of God.

You are welcomed to listen in or even contribute a wee prayer of your own.

If you are unsure how to access this session please email info@upperbraes.org.uk.
