Thy Kingdom Come takes place for 10 days from Ascension Day to Pentecost Sunday – this year May 13th to May 23rd. It began in 2016 initiated by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York. Since then it has become widely recognised and participation now includes those from many church backgrounds and organisations – and many countries of the world. In Otley in past years the upstairs room at Casa Vitae was a place of prayer during this period which concluded with an ecumenical service in the market square. Due to the pandemic, meetings were not possible last year and this remains the situation in 2021.
See www.thykingdomcome.global for details and many resources for all ages.
Otley Prayer Network (OPN), which is part of Churches Together in Otley will be hosting a virtual Zoom prayer meeting on Thursday 20th May from 11am to 12 noon. The aim of the meeting is to pray together for our town and beyond using locally prepared ideas and appropriate resources from Thy Kingdom Come. This is an ecumenical time of prayer and everyone is welcome to attend. Details of how to participate in this Zoom event are available from local church leaders.
Special prayer for Thy Kingdom Come:
Almighty God, your ascended Son has sent us into the world to preach the good news of your kingdom: Inspire us with your Spirit and fill our hearts with the fire of your love, that all who hear your Word may be drawn to you, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Christians from the churches in Otley are meeting once again on the first Saturday in the month. There is a simple breakfast of bread rolls and a hot drink followed by a few thoughts and shared prayer. This month the Prayer Breakfast is at the Parish Church.
