31st October - Outreach

Tonight, as our team heads out into the community for Halloween, we’d love your prayers. We’ll be meeting up with young people we regularly connect with, and we’re expectant that God will move in a new way. Pray that His light shines brightly, bringing hope, peace, and joy into every conversation and encounter.

Outreach
We’ve recently seen a noticeable increase in antisocial behaviour across some of the areas where we serve. Please pray for an abrupt end to the unrest and for peace to be restored in our communities. Pray that in the midst of the challenge, we would have endless opportunities to share the hope of the gospel. That light would break through darkness, and that young people would encounter the transforming love of Jesus through every interaction.
 

Asylum Seekers
As the world around us grows increasingly hostile, we invite you to hold in prayer, the asylum seekers with whom we walk alongside every week.  Many live with deep uncertainty as government policies shift and communities respond with mixed reactions. Pray that our relationships with them would deepen, and that we would show God’s love with wisdom and compassion. May we be a steady source of welcome and belonging - reflecting Jesus’ heart for every stranger, in a world that can often feel divided and unkind.


Phase 2  - Youth Hub

We’ve had some really encouraging meetings this month, and it’s been exciting to see Phase 2 continuing to move forward. There’s a real sense of God’s timing in how things are unfolding — conversations are deepening, doors are opening, and pieces that once felt far off are beginning to come together.

Please continue to pray for provision and that the right funds would be released at the right time, and for favour with upcoming funding applications and business connections.

Thank you for standing with us and praying as this vision draws nearer to becoming a reality.


Bible Study
This month, we’ve begun exploring the Bridal paradigm in our Bible study and we’re believing it will be a time of deep transformation. Please pray that as the girls engage with this series, they would encounter the love of Jesus in a fresh and personal way - coming to know themselves as His beloved Bride.
