2014 Prayers for London

So 2014 is upon us. What should we be praying for London this year? There’s no Diamond Jubilee to celebrate, no Olympics (though the Commonwealth Games are happening in Glasgow), and not much chance of another royal baby. So what is happening in London in 2014? And what should we be praying for?
