Welcome to this long Bank Holiday weekend and our Sunday Online at Encounter Vineyard.

It really does feel like summer is here now and we have all sorts of summer events coming up. Please do check the home page of our website to get all the dates in your diary. 

We are also in the season of Pentecost where we are in a series called ‘Revive.’ In this series we have been looking at the pouring out of the Spirit in the book of Acts and what that means for us today as we retrace the steps of the early church and what it means for us here in the Cotswolds.

In this season we have also entered into an intentional time of prayer and fasting that we are calling Revive 25. If you haven’t yet joined the journey, there is still time!

We are praying that we experience a fresh awakening during this season as we use the book of Acts as our prayer and mission guide. We also have various resources available on the homepage of our website to help equip us on the journey.

Today we have a morning celebration where Mark is bringing a message called ‘Freedom in the Midnights.’ In the evening we have our monthly Firefall, as we continue to pray for an awakening in the church and all around us.

We are grateful for all that’s ahead — and as always, praying for you as you play your part in what God is doing through this church, in this region.
