Join with us in praying for Alex Lyell and all at Streatham Central Church...

• Praise God for our venue, We've been there almost a year and it is a huge blessing to have more room and storage. God has been blessing us with more visitors since the move.
• Pray for our Apprentice, Connor Wakefield, who has been doing the Cornhill Training Course every Monday and serving the church in ministry the rest of the week. Pray that as he splits his time between studies, local mercy ministries, evangelism and church administration the Lord will be equipping him. Pray that we as the church staff team will support him well. Praise God for him - he's so full of light and encouragement for the whole church - what a blessing he is.
• Pray as we prepare for the second time to run our Annual Good Friday Meal, enacting the Jewish traditional Passover meal; the Seder Festival, and drawing similarities between this and the redemptive message of Christ's sacrifice on Good Friday. Last year was very encouraging and intimate. This year, thanks to the excitement and success of last year we hope to host it in a larger venue and extend the invites farther. Pray for practical aspects such as venue hire and catering. Pray that the church family will be behind the event as a whole and invite friends and that they will come and hear the Good News.
• Thank God for our church weekend away which happened at the end of January. Praise God for the teaching on the Holy Spirit and times of worship, prayer and fellowship as well as the great kids teaching on prayer.
