Reverend Lesley was accompanied by Gil from St John’s and Simon from St Anne’s along with others representing parishes from Blackburn Diocese.

We met Reverend Alice from St Aidan’s, Mill Hill, Blackburn – a very different context to ours. As we journey together, we committed to walk side by side with one another and support each other in prayer and share how we are getting along.

Please continue to pray for our churches and our PCCs as they commit to this programme for the next 12-18 months. Pray that the Holy Spirit will be at work in our church congregations and within our communities; that we see more people come to know Jesus and fill our churches.
