Jennifer Beattie, a member of the Belfast congregation, initiated an idea to promote the Because blog site by designing a small credit card size calendar on one side and a photo with the wording “Change your world: involve Jesus” followed by “For anyone who has ever asked “WHY” along with the webpage and Market Harborough address.  At the bottom of the photo she’s put “We can Pray for you” with her email address.  Her plan is to give them out to people she meets.  It’s a useful little gift as well as a promotional tool.

Margaret Channon of the Watford church has sent in some new designs for Prayer Postcards. She has received some response already, including one from another church for which the request was to pray for revival for their local church. Let’s all pray for revival wherever we are. Why not use some of Margaret’s postcards for your congregation or design some yourself? Maybe there are some keen photographers in your congregation whose photos you could use. The thought is to distribute the postcards however you can and thereby give people the opportunity for prayer and to contact us.

Can We Pray for You?

Can We Pray for You?

“More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of” wrote Tennyson in his poem about the death of King Arthur.

London Prayer Ministry Table

Our congregation in London offers to pray for people in the streets around where they meet. When they do this outreach suddenly Fitzroy Square becomes a place where prayer is “customarily made”, just like it was by the banks of the river in Philippi ((Acts 16:13).Offering to pray for people invites them into the fellowship of God and is a way of meeting others at their point of need. Please continue to pray for this special ministry of the London church.

Are you Burdened?

Prayer Postcard

A member of the Watford congregation, Margaret Channon, decided to put her photographic and artistic talents to evangelical use by making postcards offering to pray for people.  The idea is to put them in mailboxes in the area near Garston Community Church where the Watford congregation meets.  This is a follow-up from Margaret. 

 “I handed out a few of those postcards on Saturday. I must have accidentally given one young man two stuck together. A little while later a car pulled up across the road, out he jumped, dashed over to me and handed two prayers for his family, and dashed back. At the prayer meeting after service we prayed for him and his family. I have given some more cards to Irene Wilson to hand out next Saturday. She said that she would put some stamps on them to show we care. We will see what happens next.”
