Transformed by Christ: Prophetic

What does it mean to live transformed by Christ; prayerful, pastoral and prophetic? Here are some encouraging stories to share as we seek to live prophetically together.

We will be prophetic in speaking out and acting, with the fire of the Holy Spirit, challenging injustice, confronting violence and working for peace and reconciliation. We will seek to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth.

Prayers

You are welcome to use these prayers to help you to engage with the year of living prophetically.
