Outreach Prayer (February 2026)
Dearest friends and co-labourers in God, I greet you in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. Please pray along with me:
Dear Heavenly Father, we pray that as we pick up our ministry to the elderly at St Luke’s ElderCare and ECON Healthcare this month, we once again commit the work into your hands. We pray that you would bless the residents and their helpers as well as the staff with your grace and your love.
We pray too for the co-workers in this ministry. Use us as vessels to bring forth love and joy through the activities and conversations. We pray that even as we do the physical work, that you, Oh Lord, would do the spiritual work in their hearts. And we also pray that even in the doing, you would reveal more of your heart and love to the co-workers.
We look forward to and thank you for this festive season that we are entering for the Chinese New Year. Even through the celebrations and fun, we want to pray for the brothers and sisters in the Friends of Jesus ministry and the different HDB rental blocks and Joint Single Scheme units who might be spending this holiday alone. It is hard to spend celebration seasons alone, so we pray for your comfort and love to be with them.
We pray for reconciliation and peace for relationships that may be strained. May you provide avenues for families to be restored and hearts to be healed. But even if we cannot see the outcome, may you use us, Lord, to be their surrogate family to bring them joy and companionship during this season.
We thank you for this wonderful privilege to partner with you in this outreach to the community, and may you embolden and energise us with the words of assurance from Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:58, “Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labour in the Lord is not in vain.”
Father, help us to live this day to the full, being true to You in everything we do.
Jesus, help us to give ourselves away to others, showing kindness to everyone we meet.
Holy Spirit, help us to love the lost and to proclaim Christ in all that we do and say.
We pray all this in Jesus’ name, Amen.
