A Call to Prayer

AUSAR (Australian Search and Rescue) have passed jurisdiction for the search for Hadleigh to the Northern Territory Police. Whilst still involved in planning AUSAR's physical presence has lessened. However, the search is on-going. Aircraft searched all day yesterday. Many local aboriginal community members are out on the water in their own boats looking and some have walked many kilometres of mangrove shoreline in search of Hadleigh. Nothing was sighted yesterday.

|PIC1|The main objective we all have is to find Hadleigh.

The local MAF community gathered together last night in order to give mutual support and to deal with the reality of what has happened.

Today we are asking for people to pray, wherever they are and as they gather for worship, that God's specific presence in all of this will be revealed.

• Above all else praise God for His sovereignty in all things.

• Pray for Hadleigh's safety.

• Pray for the immediate family: that their faith will be strengthened, that God's arms will surround them with His love and even though there are questions of why and how pray that God's peace and abundant grace are sufficient for their needs.

• Pray that the NT Police and Coroner will have adequate resources available and will use all resources needed to continue searching.

• Pray for calm weather in the area. Yesterday a strong wind blew up which resulted in choppy water. Please pray for calmness and smoother conditions today.

• Pray that God will specifically intervene and that His finger will pinpoint the area to search.
