MISSION THROUGH PRAYER
This is an important webinar, which we repeat periodically. Involvement in leading well over 100 evangelistic outreaches at the request of rural churches all over Britain and across the denominations, I learned the importance of prayer if we want our endeavours to be blessed. Some stories of missions undergirded with prayer are inspiring. I look forward to sharing these with you.
In one situation I helped to organise an outreach programme for three villages, involving seven churches, where we used prayer as a mission tool. As far as I know this is a unique event, but one which I believe others could replicate. In this webinar I explain the process step by step.
