Leader's Story - A Season of Awakening

“Before we started contending for spiritual awakening I felt like the Lord was really calling me to intercede for people around me and also to intercede for the nations.. Sarah Gandy is always encouraging me to pray for the nations and she gave me a booklet from Open Doors - they produce research on Christians that are being persecuted around the world so I saw this as an invite for me to be a lot more intentional about praying for the nations, and people in general around the world. But I was also praying for the people around me, Croydon Vineyard and the kids group that I help lead.  

So from that time something that the Lord has really been encouraging me in is sharing the gospel.  We happen to be in the book of Acts in the New Testament journey at the moment and that’s all Paul did - preaching the gospel - preaching the full gospel, and I feel like that’s something the Lord has really been challenging me on. Because I’ve been praying lots for hearts to be opened, for hearts to receive Jesus, for hearts to receive the truth, and I really felt the Lord saying ‘ok, but someone needs to share that truth with them’.” - Nana
