Roxby Downs is a mining town in South Australia, about 560 kilometres north-west of Adelaide. It has a permanent population of around 4500 who come from around 40 different nations. Almost 1,000 fly-in fly-out (FIFO) or drive-in drive-out workers can be in town depending on shifts at the mine. The town was purpose-built for Olympic Dam, a mine that produces copper, uranium, gold and silver, which is located 16 kilometres to the north of Roxby.

Pray particularly that we will have enough leaders to run our Epic Christmas Holiday Program.

The McDonald's Prayer Points for January 2026

Pray for those who remain in Roxby Downs while many people are on holidays. Pray that this might be an opportunity to build relationships with people who might be feeling lonely or newcomers to Roxby Downs.

The McDonald's Prayer Points for February 2026

Pray that our church would prioritise nurturing faith and building gospel relationship as the patterns of the year are formed. Pray that discipling one another would be our priority.
