Kerith Farnborough

The Farnborough Building Project is moving forward, with updates from Operations Director Calum Field. After raising significant funds during the autumn gift days, the team has been focused on sustainability, roof challenges, and moving towards planning approval. Sustainability is a key consideration, balancing costs with long-term benefits. Roof issues require structural modifications for added weight, and the team is nearing the planning application stage. Prayers are needed for clarity, wisdom, and a smooth approval process as they work towards the next phase of the project.

In the final devotional of our Week of Prayer and Fasting, Martins Omosogie reflects on the importance of "breathing out" the gospel. Drawing from Mark 16:15, Martins emphasizes that just as we must exhale to thrive physically, we must share the gospel with others to fulfill our spiritual mandate. He encourages us to boldly proclaim the love and grace of Jesus to a world in need. As recipients of God’s gift of salvation, we are tasked with sharing the hope of the gospel with others, acting with urgency and compassion.

In today's devotional, Ian Bryan challenges us to reflect on how we can share the love of God with our neighbors, particularly the vulnerable members of society. Drawing from Amos 5:24, Ian highlights the importance of justice and compassion, mirroring the actions of Jesus in his ministry. He shares his personal experience helping at the Food Pantry in Farnborough, where God’s provision and support for the community have been evident. Ian encourages us to look beyond ourselves and embrace the call to love others through actions—whether through time, prayers, or practical support.
