Help us to stand and see you as our Passionate Saviour
Sentence

Mark 15:2
Collect
Passionate Saviour
We clothe you in purple, then place a crown of thorns on your head
We praise you, then forget your truth
The crowd wavered, and mocked you as the King of the Jews
The centurion stood, and saw you as God’s Son
Help us to stand and see
May we be like Joseph of Arimathea
And know when to honour the Body of Christ with fine linen
As we build your kingdom
AMEN

Almighty Father,
We thank you for sending your only son Jesus Christ to live in the midst of our sinful world.
We thank you that in spite of our impurity he is still stretching out his hands to rescue us from the power of sin.

We ask all these in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ.
AMEN.

We are a Tongan Anglican Youth Group that meets twice a week. We meet for the youth’s weekly programmes and also participate in the activities of the church. Our priority is to gather the young people, give them a place where they can interact and grow as Christians. All Saint’s Youth is honoured by their parents participation and support in all their programmes. Our hopes and dreams are that young people would contribute more in building up the Kingdom of God through their ministry.

Pray that God will give us a heart after Him; also pray that God birth in us a passion for young people that are yet to experience the Love of God and that young men and women will willingly offer themselves to the work of God.

The Samoa Agelu Youth Group – Diocese of Polynesia Bishopric Youth in NZ.
We are young pacific islanders all Samoan and we range from the age of 13 to 19 who come together any time we can even if its for practice or just for fellowship. We enjoy each others company and we basically just love working together as a Youth for a project or for God’s calling.
We meet every Saturday at our Church in Mangere!
When we get together it is usually for our practice for our songs that we sing during Communion on Sundays, or Youth Meetings, or even Bible Studies. We have practice every Saturday but we have alternate Saturdays where we have either Bible Studies or clean up.
At the moment our group’s hope and dream is to fully utilize our Youth members talents to the best of their ability and for glorifying God and using it to praise God. We pray for the use of the Youth in the Church and the growth of Youth so that they may become great and mighty leaders for God within the Church.
