Thy Kingdom Come – 2017 prayer

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, is inviting Christians around the world to pray as one for people to know Jesus Christ. This is taking place between Ascension and Pentecost 2017.

 

We are joining in that here at Trinity Churches, and are offering opportunities to come together to pray, as well as resources to get praying on our own and in small groups.

Praying individually and in smaller groups
