We were so grateful to our mission partner Glen Scrivener for joining us via videolink at our monthly St Mary’s Evening on 13th February. It is so encouraging for our mission partners, and for us, to share and pray together.

Glen is CEO and Evangelism Director for Speak Life. Speak Life exists to share the good news of Jesus Christ through captivating, Christ-centred proclamation and media. In addition to the rolling work, there is a particular focus right now on developing the online 321 course and associated media. 321 is a course that invites people to see life the way Jesus does. Inspired by Jesus’ vision of reality, 321 is designed to help people think about God, the world and themselves through immersive videos and thoughtful illustrations. Find out more at SpeakLife, or even sign-up for regular updates on their work which you can pray for via this link . Glen’s specific requests for our prayers are at the bottom of this blog – why not pray for one minute now on one of these?

And please – join us for St Mary’s Evening next month (Thursday 13th March). It is great for each of us to pray for the work St Mary’s has been called to support. It’s also great to encourage one another to do this by doing it together!
