Twice per month we enjoy the privilege of gathering together on Sunday evenings to pray for our church, and our gospel mission in this fair city of Bristol. But it is our constant desire to grow in praying for other churches and other nations.

So, continuing on Sunday 21st June 2009, we going to be taking some time out during our prayer meeting to highlight and pray for a couple of different 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 the churches we’ll being praying for 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 2 different churches.

Firstly, we’ll be highlighting and praying for our new friends, Steve & Naime Phillips (who visited us recently) and the church in Vilassar De Mar, just north of Barcelona in Spain.

Secondly, we’ll be meeting Dave and Emma Taylor. Dave currently serves as a pastor at Christchurch, our sister church in Newport, South Wales. In 2010, Dave and Emma and their young family are moving to Australia to plant a Sovereign Grace Church there.

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