Praying Together Via Zoom
Hello everyone!
A big thank you to those who joined our last Zoom session, where we prayed for the unrest in the UK and Eastbourne. We’ve received wonderful feedback on how uplifting it is when churches in Eastbourne come together.
We’re excited to announce another Zoom gathering!
St. John’s will be taking part in the World Council of Churches’ Week of Prayer from September 16th to 22nd. In preparation, we’re hosting an ecumenical prayer session on Zoom, led by Giles Carpenter, for all Eastbourne churches. This will take place on Monday, September 9th, at 5 PM.
Please help spread the word within your church, just as you did last time. Feel free to reach out if you need more information!

This rich letter provides us with a definition and defence of what it means to be a true apostle, a wonderful exposition of the gospel in its whole Bible context, a practical call to holiness and generous giving and an exposition of where spiritual strength and reality lie.
