Prayer Meeting

We had a wonderful prayer meeting at St Jude's on Monday night. They are slowly growing in attendance. February had 50 people, March had 63 and this week we had 74. I am delighted with this, and now dare to hope that we might crack the 100 barrier next month.


This month we focused in on the Urban Workers Ministry and we heard from Tim Patrick about some of the things that 5 is up to this year. He spoke of their twin goals to re-energise the Sunday services, and then to grow our outreach to Urban Workers from that base. He spoke of the changes that are being implemented in the Sunday services. He shared with us some stats about the the life of the congregation over time, and the need to not just be satisfied but to grow beyond our current ceiling.

We spent a good chunk of time then asking God to bless this ministry and to grow it as Tim had presented. We then sang a great song written by two of our Unichurch members, and then prayed for other parts of St Jude's ministry life.

It was a really rich night with lots of encouragement. This is the real powerhouse of our ministry and we must see it grow more and more.

Want to be part of breaking the 100 next month? May 4th at 8pm in the church.
