NBA Prayer Relay for 27th September - Wolsingham BC (Weardale)

Please pray for:

  • The recent outreach at Wolsingham and Stanhope Agricultural show, which involved a Churches Together Christian table, where children were able to do a craft and a prayer tree was available for adults. We also had a charity box for the Great Ormond Street Hospital in London. This gave us the opportunity to talk and pray with non-church attenders. People also      wrote a card message for the children in Great Ormond Street Hospital, which card was sent with our money donation.
  • The Churches together in Weardale and Hope in the Dale, as we plan for our Christmas outreach and Christingle service on 24th December. Some 400 people attend this service and have a chance to hear the gospel.
  • Our harvest outreach on October 10th at 7pm, when we have a Concert with Paul Wheater, followed by Pie and pea supper.
  • Our visitors who attended our church while on holiday over this last summer of 2015 and who stay at two of the caravan sites near Wolsingham.
  • Our regular 15 members who attend our church each week and our ill and house bound members.
  • More people to be saved and join our church as reach out in Weardale.
  • Our Pastor in Training Paul Harris, as he continues is studies.

Finally, but importantly, give thanks that the Lord keeps us going as the only Baptist church in Weardale.
