Local congregations united in prayer..

The recently beautifully restored Castle Gardens in wall to wall glorious sunshine was the idyllic setting for many members of local congregations to enjoy an Inter-Church Picnic and Prayer event last Sunday afternoon (Pentecost Sunday). Linked to the Global Day of Prayer which was held in a number of other venues in the Province and in many countries worldwide, the event was led by Lisburn city centre ministers and included prayers of adoration, confession, for the Church, for our community, our land and the nations of our world. Each prayer was followed by a suitable interpretation or response.

The lively open air worship was led by Christ Church Praise Band with David Honeyford (Zest Audio) and his team provided the sound mixing facility. The Night Reach team from Railway Street Presbyterian Church were on hand to offer free light refreshments to those who had not managed to pack a picnic.
