Do pray for these important meetings during the week. Pray for Rt Rev Dr Frank Sellar who will chair the meetings (his role is referred to as ‘The Moderator’). Pray also for his wife Claire as she and Frank begin what will be a busy year.
Also pray for Rev Trevor Gribben (his role is known as ‘The Clerk of the Assembly’) who carries significant responsibility for guiding the business sessions of the week.
