Sending, Proclaiming, Following
Series name:
Prayer and Self-Denial How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger who brings good news, who announces salvation, who says to Zion, Your God Reigns. Isaiah 52:7
Today we start a three week focus on Prayer and Self-Denial for the work of Tranzsend, the global Mission arm of The Baptist Churches of New Zealand. The theme this year is God’s Messengers: making the good news known. Since 1885 New Zealand Baptists have been involved in mission work outside of New Zealand, and this year’s prayer and self-denial season celebrates the 125 years of global mission.
This morning Karen Lau is co-ordinating our service drawing on the stories sent by Tranzsend’s overseas workers recounting how they have seen God active in their lives over the past 12 months. If you are interested in praying during the week for the work of Tranzsend you can find more information on their prayer blog.
