VISITING SPEAKER | Margie Vincent (The Family Centre in Romania)
  • Date | Sunday 13th October
  • Time | 1:30pm
  • Where | Gateways Church, 172 Church St, Palmy

Margie’s heart-wrenching prayer of, “What can I do, God?”, was answered with the beginning of The Family Centre (TFC) – a very special place in Romania where families could come to for support, so they wouldn’t abandon their babies to state-run orphanages. The ministry of TFC is now 24 years on since it first began in 2000. The story is one full of the wonder of God’s leading, provision and most importantly, His love.

MEDIA PRAYER DAY | Sun 27th Oct

Join hundreds of churches throughout Aotearoa New Zealand to pause for a few minutes of your Sunday service to pray for those working in our country’s media industry. These individuals influence so many aspects of our lives, yet this past year has been especially tumultuous for them, as they've had to navigate challenges. Pray that they would have the strength and wisdom to do the job well and with integrity.
