As we lead up to Easter, why not take the opportunity to pray for our local communities of Horfield, Lockleaze and Filton. As we come out of Lockdown, there are many who are excited about all the prospects ahead and many who are really struggling with the changes and the unknown.

Turn your daily exercise during lockdown into a time of prayer for your neighbourhood. It's as simple as it sounds – pray as you walk.

Here are simple ways you can start:

You could also print our handy 'Prayer Walk Hunt' sheet for inspiration, or take your mobile with you and use this form on the go! www.ebe.org.uk/prayerwalkhunt
If you're unable to leave your house right now, you could look out of your window into your street instead!

What do you see and hear? Who lives in the homes you pass? Are there businesses, local services or community spaces near you? Respond to your environment and listen for God's nudges in how to pray. Take photos to remind you to pray when home or share on social media. Here are few previous community prayer walks -
