An invaluable resource for anyone who regularly prepares prayers for public worship.Praying for the world beyond the Church is an important strand of the Church's vocation. But in such a complex and diverse world, it can be difficult to find the words to pray for a specific place or situation.Morning Prayer in Urumqi encourages intercessors to pray widely and imaginatively. David Goodacrespeaks first of the general problem, then explores the theology of intercession, before spelling out a way of preparing more specific petitions. He asks intercessors to examine what associations they may have with the different parts of the world-from the news, from reading, from personal connection-illustrating this by sharing his own personal associations in a series of 52 vignettes, one for each week of the liturgical year.
