Circuit report
Over the next few weeks I will be writing a report for the circuit. Mark has asked me to write about a page on each Church looking at its mission and how it might be developed, also giving some thought to how the circuit can develop its overall mission strategy. This does mean is that posts to this blog are going to be a little in short supply but I do welcome members of the North Lincoln Methodist Churches (and others) to contact me with their thoughts or questions about the mission of their church or that of the circuit.
I will be presenting the report at Nettleham Methodist Church on Tuesday 11th August, 7:30pm and I believe the meeting is open to all. I won’t attempt to go through the whole thing in detail but will present a few key ideas and answer questions but, and this is most important, I want us to pray together for the churches and their mission and also for the circuit. I want us to prayer for the staff and the stewards of each church and the circuit. I want us to pray. I don’t think we pray enough. We need to pray.
I would like to remind the circuit that I have one more training session left which takes place on Tuesday 3rd August, 7:30pm at Saxilby Methodist Church and is looking at the use and development of buildings for mission. A bit of film, a few thoughts on the issue and some discussion so that hopefully those that attend are better equiped when thinking about their church buildings and how they could be used, adapted, updated, replaced to suit the needs of the mission.
Prayer: the powerhouse of mission
