Leaders from local churches are still meeting regularly and one thing we hope to see happen in 2017 is a joint ‘Churches Together’ prayer meeting, to be held at different times and days in different churches. We believe it is important to join together in prayer and to pray for our churches and local communities as well as the wider world. 1 Tim 2:1 in the Message version says, ‘The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.” That gives us a lot of scope for prayer!

The first joint ‘Churches Together’ prayer meeting will be on Wednesday 10th May at 10.30 a.m. at the Salvation Army on Straight Lane in Goldthorpe. We will try to hold these prayer meetings every other month and hope to hold them at different times and days to allow people who are working to attend.

Prayer is the powerhouse of the church, and we need to gather together to pray. If we want to see God’s kingdom come in our local area, we as Christians need to join together, demonstrating unity and faith. If you are free on 10th May at 10.30 a.m., please come and join with us. Who know what God will do as we seek His face?
