As you know, Grace Church is part of a wider family of churches, led by CJ Mahaney (pictured right), known as Sovereign Grace Ministries.

As you should also know, we enjoy the privilege of gathering together twice per month on Sunday evenings to pray for our church, and our gospel mission in this fair city of Bristol. We also want to grow in praying for other churches and other nations.

So, continuing on Sunday 26th April 2009, we going to be taking some time out during our prayer meeting to highlight and pray for one of our “sister” Sovereign Grace Churches.

It’s a great way for us to connect to our wider mission and partnership being part of Sovereign Grace, and its great for us to support other churches, praying for God’s grace, strength, favour and kindness upon those we will probably never meet this side of heaven.

The week before the prayer meeting, we’re going to be highlighting one church here on the blog, providing some background information about the church – where they are, bit of church history, a who’s who, etc… and then we’ll be handing out some pointers during the prayer meeting to help us pray effectively!

All this week we will be focusing on, and praying for: Grace Community Church in Asburn, Virginia.

Previous churches we have prayed for:
CrossWay Fellowship Church, Part 1, Part 2 & Part 3
