Partner in Prayer
‘…as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the gracious favour granted us in answer to the prayers of many.’ 2 Corinthians 1:11 (NIV)
Wellesley Bailey, founder of The Leprosy Mission, said that The Mission was ‘born and cradled in prayer’. More than 140 years later, prayer still has a vital place in everything we do. Every morning, members of the Leprosy Mission family around the world stop what they are doing to pray for their work and for the needs of people and communities affected by leprosy.
If you want to join with us in praying, there are a range of resources you can use to help you.
You can also sign up here to receive prayer updates by email. If you prefer to receive any of our prayer resources by post please contact our Church Engagement Coordinator Glen Coleman by emailing engage@leprosymission.org.au or calling 1800 537 767.
