Dear Lord, our Heavenly Father;
We thank you that your son Jesus spent forty days and forty nights in the wilderness in preparation for his ministry.
We ask you to anoint us with your Holy Spirit that we may truly repent and be drawn closer to you.
Through Jesus Christ our Lord,
AMEN

‘Ameni

We are an Indo-Fijian youth group, who meet twice a month in Balmoral. Our purpose is to worship and share the Word of God. We hope that we can bring more young people to the Lord and that our group may grow. We pray that more and more young people may come to know Jesus.
