Prayer for Barnies
The right turn bay from Broadway into Mountain St was cordoned off this morning, and as the bus drove past there was police tape and fire engines galore. On closer inspection, the main hall of St Barnabas Broadway was burnt down, totally gutted by fire, tin roof collapsed over the historic stone walls. There’s an SMH article about it.
Please pray for the church. Pray that alternative places for services and activities will be found speedily, that the recovery effort will be efficient, that the investigators will have wisdom in determining the causes of the fire, and that the leaders of the church will wholly rely on our Lord for direction. Pray that the whole church community will show grace to one another and the wider community through such tragedy.
Destruction of a church building doesn’t destory the church, who are essentially Christ’s people on earth. Thank God that nothing can destory his church.
