Please Pray for Finny Music 

 

 "Please pray with us for the busy weekender to the West Country where we will be visiting TWO prisons. HMP-Leyhill (Cat C) on Saturday evening to do a concert. Then on Sunday we go to HMP-Eastwood Park (Women's prison) to lead TWO morning services. We usually do an afternoon concert but things are a bit tricky right now so would value prayers for the Lord's leading as to what He wants in the afternoon! Pray too for the team, our safety on the roads and the presence of God in our ministry to these inmates. 

Thank you Luc"

"Honesty over Silence" Tour - Friday 8 November

An evening of live music and talks, seeking to open up conversations around topics such as trusting God when life is painful.  On Friday 8th November 2019, Burlington Baptist Church, Ipswich will be hosting ‘Honesty Over Silence - The Tour’ with Patrick Regan OBE and Diane Regan.

Honesty Over Silence - The Tour seeks to open up conversations around topics that many find difficult such as trusting in God when life is painful, dealing with anxiety and depression, learning to look after ourselves, developing our character, and living with thankful hearts even in tough seasons. It will examine the strength in letting go of the need to be in control as well as looking at how we can stop comparing ourselves to others and instead live authentically and honestly as we grow into the people God has created us to be. Much of the material will be taken from Patrick’s new book of the same title.
