As part of our partnership work for the Free Church Education Committee, we are members of the Pray for Schools network, working alongside lots of other dynamic and engaged Christian organisations. One of the other groups who are also on the Pray for Schools network is BeSpace.

BeSpace is a Christian charity who encourages churches to work together to see prayer and reflection spaces happening in all areas of the community. BeSpace has produced and shared an interesting and engaging range of resources for prayer activities at home. Here is an activity for children, young people and their parents / carers to share -

When I needed a neighbour...

This is the opening line of a popular and thought provoking hymn which many of us will know, by Sydney Carter (written in 1965).

We may well be wondering how we can be good neighbours in these strange times; we may be volunteering in our local community or agreeing to safely deliver food and essentials to those who are vulnerable in our neighbourhood whom we have not met before.

A new network of support and advice has been launched this week, through an ecumenical partnership of a number of churches (including some who are members of FCG).

It’s called “Your Neighbour” and you can find out more HERE.

Please feel free to share in your churches and communities and join us as we pray for this collaborative effort.
