NEW HAMPSHIRECOUNCIL OF CHURCHES
2020 Cycle of Prayer
PO Box 1087 140 Sheep Davis Road
ABOUT THIS CYCLE
Beloved, pray for us. (1 Thess. 5:25)
The NH Council of Churches has nine member denominations:
American Baptist Churches of Vermont and New Hampshire Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Boston Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, New England Synod Presbyterian Church (USA), Presbytery of Northern New
England Religious Society of Friends, New England Yearly Meeting United Church of Christ, New Hampshire Conference United Methodist Church, New England Conference Unitarian Universalist Association, New England Region
All together, there are about 380 congregations with membership in one (or more) of these denominations. This cycle groups congregations in sets of 7-8 for each week of the year.
In using this in your congregation, you may wish to:
Pray for the 7-8 congregations each Sunday in the Prayers of the People, General Intercessions, Universal Prayer or Pastoral Prayer as fits your own worship tradition.
Pray for the congregations in smaller sets in daily or midweek prayer services.
Find your town and see other churches in your town. Churches are listed by town, in alphabetical order. Highlight this fact in church on Sunday as you pray for your neighbors.
Share these prayer needs on your social media as we share them online at facebook.com/nhcouncilofchurches
