We’re setting aside a whole week to lift up our church’s vision to God in prayer—and you’re invited to be part of it!
Every day at 12pm, wherever you are (at home, at your desk, in the middle of errands), we’ll pause together to read and pray a simple vision prayer which you can find below or on our flyer.
The Vision Prayer
Father,
We thank You for our church family and the blessing of being a multigenerational community. Thank You for your deep love for each of us and for making us all uniquely in Your image. Help us equip each other as disciples to follow Jesus wholeheartedly in every season of life.
We pray for the emerging generations (0-30 years old) in our church. Pour out Your Spirit upon them, ignite their hearts for Your kingdom, and guide us as we invest in them to become lifelong disciples of Jesus who will impact the wider church and the world for generations to come.
We thank You for Guildford and the privilege of being part of its transformation. May Your hope and light shine through us in our words, actions, and love for our neighbours. Let our church be a beacon of hope and light, bringing the love of Jesus to every corner of our community.

Prayer Week Devotional Plan
Day 1 – Equip
Reflect on how you’re equipped as a disciple of Jesus. Find an object that represents this (e.g., Bible, instrument, mustard seed) and hold it as you pray for our church to grow in being equipped as disciples. Be creative.
Day 2 – Equip
Ask God to bring to mind someone who already knows Jesus. Pray for them to grow in their faith and to be equipped for what God is calling them to. Send them a message to let them know you’re praying for them.
Day 3 – Invest
Pray for children, youth, students, or young adults to know Jesus in every part of their lives. If you live with someone aged 0–30, ask how they want to grow in their faith and pray with them.
Day 4 – Invest
Think back to your own faith journey between the ages of 0–30. Recall moments when others invested in you—or ask someone else if you didn’t have that experience. Pray into what comes to mind.
Day 5 – Transform
Go for a walk or drive and notice the people around you. Quietly pray for them to have a good day and to know God’s transforming light and hope. Be open to starting a conversation if prompted.
Day 6 – Transform
Think about your neighbours and what you know of their lives. Pray for them to encounter God’s transforming light and hope today.
Day 7 – Equip, Invest & Transform
Pause and be still for at least one minute. Ask God if He’s revealed anything this week about our church’s vision. If you feel led, email your thoughts to Joy at joy.bishop@st-saviours.org.uk.
