Fresh shoots in the UK (March 2010)

With an office move imminent, fresh manuscript work underway, and new initiatives to embrace, this spring feels very much like a time of “fresh shoots” for SGM Lifewords in the UK. This week, join us in praying for new projects.

• This month, SGM Lifewords will be moving our UK offices from Radstock House (in Victoria) to the Oasis Centre near Westminster. Please pray with us for the logistics of the move, and for a smooth transition for all involved. Give thanks with us for the significant part that Radstock House has played in the story of the mission; pray also for start of a new chapter in a new home, and pray that we’ll be able to make the most of the opportunities a different working environment will provide.
• The UK programme development team is currently working on two new manuscripts, both telling the story of Jesus’ life and ministry. One is an “introduction” to Jesus; the other a longer telling of the gospel story. Inspiration for these booklets came from research for the Historic Churches initiatives, as people working in visitor contexts asked for resources that would help introduce Jesus to an “unchurched” audience. Please pray for wisdom and creativity for all those involved in working on these projects.
