As a fellowship we believe in fulfilling the Great Commission (Matt 28:16-20), by supporting mission locally, nationally and internationally. While there are many worthy causes we could support, we specifically support the following by prayer and through financial support:
Internationally:
Henry, Esther, Ezra and baby Jude
Henry, Esther, Ezra and baby Jude
Training for a ministry in France – Church leaders in France are in desperate need of mature Christians to support and draw alongside them to disciple new converts to spiritual maturity.
Esther seeks to support women’s and students’ ministry, having worked for UCCF for the past seven years.
Henry intends to serve the local church where the need arises, particularly supporting youth ministry, discipleship and evangelism, whilst completing theological studies to grow into a role of an assistant pastor in the long-term.
John and Sonia Wilkinson, Brazil
John and Sonia Wilkinson have lived and worked in Brazil for many years. They have two sons. Initially, they worked in partnership with the New Tribes Mission amongst the Satere-Mawe ethnic group in the Amazon region. More recently they have been involved in painstaking revision work for a bible translation for this same ethnic group.
Nationally and Regionally:
Steve Loader, Avonmouth and Portbury Docks
Steve, a builder by trade, was brought up on a tough Bristol estate in a church founded by his own father. Through the Holy Spirit’s leading, he has become a chaplain with Counties Evangelists to seafarers at Portbury and Avonmouth Docks in Bristol.
Locally:
We support the Yate & Chipping Sodbury Food Bank Thornbury Centre, which is our local food bank to help those in need. The chapel contributes to this through regular collections of food and money.
We also support Good News for Everyone (formerly known as GideonsUK), Tear Fund, Barnabas Fund and Transform Europe Network (TEN), it is a Bristol-based Christian charity that works through a network of partner churches and charities to support communities across Eastern Europe, we often also support various other visiting ministries.
