WEEK OF OUTREACH……ctd!!God is doing remarkable things!

Over the course of the last week, over 150 people have prayed froJesus to forgive them on the streets of Wantage, Abingdon, Didcot,Swindon and Henley. As we have spent time in worshipping and

encountering God, and then gone out and shared the simple messageof the gospel, we saw people responding, and loads of them want to

be followed up.Massive thanks to everyone who got involved in one way or another.We plan to continue this with a sustainable rhythm of encounter andgoing on the streets - the next opportunity will be the evening of

Friday the 7th of October at St. Birinius, Didcot and then we will meet(venue tbc) to go out on the streets of Wantage on the morning of

Saturday the 8th.
