Wildfires’ – The Holy Spirit: a biblical journey from Genesis to Revelation
This summer, we’ll immerse ourselves in the person and work of the Holy Spirit: from the first verses of Genesis, to the last verses of Revelation. Often the ‘forgotten’ part of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit is there at Creation and also at the climax of the New Creation, throughout history revealing the reality of God’s presence and power to the world. Alongside our Sunday teaching, there will be Daily Inspirations to take you deeper on the journey throughout this whole ‘Pentecost’ season. So, let’s celebrate the Wildfire of the Holy Spirit, and continue to welcome His presence in our lives today!

‘Revive’ an informal prayer group meet in church between 9:15 – 10:00am, weekly during term time.
Confidential Prayer Chain
Our prayer chain is available to anyone who needs to request prayer – either for themselves, for a loved one or someone they know. If you have an urgent prayer need and would like to be supported in prayer, we have a group of people at church committed to pray for any needs which arise. All requests will be treated in strict confidence, kept within the group and anonymised if you wish it. Just send your request via email (prayerchain.wavendon@gmail.com) and we will send it out to all who support the prayer chain. Prayer Chain members do not know who the other members are, so anything shared is never discussed in other places or between prayers.

This will be a place where we come together, lead group meetings (different leader/speaker each month), grow in faith, strengthen one another, and develop a consistent life of prayer.

We invite all men to join us as we begin this journey together. Come expectant, come as you are, and come ready to grow!
