Start praying right now for Danish believers whose lives
will be changed at a landmark church planting conference April 24-25 called
“Gro15.” It’s a yearly gathering of Danish church planters and church folk --
all passionate about seeing the church of Christ grow and mature throughout
Denmark.
This year’s main speaker is London-based Al Gordon, global
vice president for Alpha International. Gordon co-leads a team that oversees
Alpha’s evangelistic outreach work in 169 countries worldwide. Matt Reynolds, pastor of
Atlanta’s Grace Midtown Church, is also planning to attend.
And here’s something different: Each attendee will be hosted
in a local home, where they’ll have a chance to talk through what they’re
learning about evangelism and church planting in a local, living room context.
The conference is co-sponsored by Alpha Danmark, along with
the Aarhus Valgmenighed church and Kirke Planter Net, a movement to encourage disciplemaking, church growth, and church plan
PRAY for this
organic, authentic Danish church planting and outreach strategy, that everyone
attending will be moved to reach out beyond their local churches in the name of
Christ.
PRAY for the
speakers, Al Gordon and Matt Reynolds, as well as Danish pastors Peter
Søndergaard and Keld Dahlmann, that God would touch them with just the right
message for this time.
PRAY that God
would continue to grow this exciting church planting movement, and that it
would remain focused on Jesus in a spirit of truth and unity.
PRAY for the conference
home groups, that real church growth would be planted in living rooms around
the city of Aarhus.
