Teach us to pray: Give us this day

We continue our series by exploring the transformative power of praying for our “daily bread,” reminding us that God’s provision is designed for today’s needs rather than tomorrow’s anxieties. We are invited to experience “today” as God’s gift, and trust that God’s grace is always enough for the present moment.

Also included is a conversation between Martha and our moderator Susan Stevenson about what has brought Martha to this point. The recording concludes with Holy Communion shared around tables.
