The Church at Home and Abroad

 

Christ Church Ottershaw has several links overseas and we ask your prayers in particular for:

Adrian and Jane Shutt at Kisiizi Hospital, Uganda, with Ben, Rebecca, Bethany and Robert
Give thanks for the medical provision and Christian witness of the Hospital and pray for the staff
Pray for the children now back at school in Kenya

Our friends in remote areas
Give thanks for those who witness in remote areas with no churches and few Christians and pray that some will respond to hearing the gospel.

Allen and Lesley Nicholas in Dubai with Zara
Give thanks for the witness of the Christian community in this Muslim country and pray for the new Christian Centre.
Pray for Allen to continue in good health and for Zara at a new school.

Pray also for Bill and Joanna with Rachael and Emma in Trinidad and for the church to which they belong. Also for Peter and Jill with Oliver and Emily at Lanzarote and the witness of their Christian community.

Give thanks for our deanery link with Kebbi dicoese in northern Nigeria. Pray for Bishop Edmund and all Christians there who are under pressure and at risk from Muslim hostility and Sharia law.

Here in the UK we are part of the local prayer network and fellowship of churches. We have a strong Youth Ministry - for details see the relevant pages. We run periodic Alpha courses to provide an introduction to the Christian faith.
