Trinity Angelus – 20 May

Please join us for a few minutes each Wednesday, between noon and 2pm, to pray with the Trinity community.

Local:
This is Mental Health Awareness Week. For many people the stress and disruption of Covid-19 are causing serious mental fragility. Pray for all those suffering from mental health problems at this time and for those in our community who provide help and support.

National:
Pray for all those who have been staying at home unable to work and who now need to negotiate a changed expectation of work in the workplace. Pray for those currently returning to work and also for those who jobs are such that there is no way to carry them out at this time.

Global:
Pray for Indian Ocean Islands: Comoros, Madagascar, Maldives, Mauritius, Seychelles (World Council of Churches Ecumenical prayer cycle)

400,000 in Maldives, Male' houses about 200,000 people including foreign 
workers. As the local islanders finish their 10th or 12th grade they are 
somehow forced to come to the city for their higher education and to look 
for better opportunities. Its really sad to have one single city developed 
over 30 years instead of developing islands in different locations in 
Maldives. The current situation could have been avoided. I hope to see 
five more cities like this in Maldives in different locations so that one 
place won’t get packed. It’s beautiful from the Sky."
