ACCOMMODATION

PRAYER AID

The team have all returned safely from this summer’s mission to the Bethlehem Centre in Hunedoara with many stories of seeing God at work in that place. Thank you to all who have prayed for the team and the Bethlehem Centre.

Geery, one of the Lighthouse brothers, is looking for somewhere to lodge. He is very friendly, a Christian, and has seen God work amazingly in his life! Lighthouse will pay rent and bills and he has a glowing reference from his last landlord.

This would be from September.

If you can help please email

If you missed our Global Passion Celebration and would like to catch up with and pray for our mission partners, then a new 12-day prayer diary is available from the foyer.
