Let’s Continue to Pray
Join with us in praying for those impacted by the fires across Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. Many have been forced to leave their homes with little notice while some have lost their homes and belongings. We have churches within the CBAC family in the evacuated zones at risk from the fire. Praise God that no lives have been lost.
- We pray for safety and protection for those diligently fighting the fires and risking their lives to protect us, our homes, businesses, community centres, and churches.
- We pray for containment of the fire that they would not grow.
- We pray for provision where there is loss of homes and belongings, and that communities and neighbourhoods would come together and support each other.
- We pray for peace in the midst of anxiety and fear.
- We pray for rain here in Atlantic Canada and in other areas across Canada that have been battling fires and drought. Our land is dry. Lord, hear our prayer.
- We pray that God’s love would shine through His people in Atlantic Canada as they minister to those impacted. Amen
