Each year in September we set aside a week near the beginning of the new school year to pray for our congregations at GBC and for our community. On each day of this week we will pray for different areas of life within Godmanchester Baptist Church. I encourage you to find some time each day to pray - using the short overview and pointers for prayer in the daily e-mail.
Friday - personal faith and discipleship
Everyone is in a different place in their relationship with God. Some people haven’t made that commitment to follow Christ and those who have are always growing in their relationship with Him.
As a church we look for opportunities for people to start that journey by becoming a Christian and for us all to continue to grow.
We use the phrase ‘Toolbox’ to describe groups where people meet with others and use a variety of resources to learn together. Please pray for the groups in this term's Toolbox, that each person who attends will learn more about God which will cause them to make a commitment to follow Christ or a commitment to continue to deepen their relationship with Him:
Monday afternoon Bible Study Monday afternoon, led by Philip Thompson, studying God’s word
Freedom in Christ Tuesday evening, led by Carolyn Keats, a course looking at true freedom in Christ
When life hurts Wednesday afternoon, led by Jo Hitchins, studying the book of Job
Alpha Thursday evening, led by Carolyn Keats, learning about Christianity
Deeper occasional Sunday evenings, led by Bethany and Joe Warton and Tony Goodwin, an opportunity to go further and deeper in worship
