In our cycle, we pray for the Diocesan Council for Partnership in World Mission (PWM for short!), asking God to guide the work of its chair @readingbp, its exec, and all its members.

The live stream has finished but the #Christlikechurch conversations continue. Lots of lively debate following presentations by @readingbp and @LiviJGraham on discipleship and sharing our faith.

God of glory, you nourish us with your Word who is the bread of life: fill us with your Holy Spirit that through us the light of your glory may shine in all the world. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.

With the #Ethiopia2018 pilgrimage now well underway, the Bishop of Reading takes a moment to reflect on the journey so far and what it means to truly stop and examine our Christian lives. @readingbp is worth a listen! (10 mins) soundcloud.com/user-48753518…
