 An invitation to seek God’s face together and see the furnace of faith burn bright this winter

As a church, we want to build faith for:

  • People to meet Jesus

  • People to come back to Jesus

  • Us to fall deeper in love with Jesus

Prayer is how we partner with God through this

This year, we want to see:

  • Testimonies of lives transformed

  • People coming to faith

  • Baptisms

  • Encounters with Jesus


How to get involved

From 1 June to 30 September, everyone is invited to commit to 4 x half-hour blocks of prayer a week

You can do this:

  • at home

  • book the prayer room (first time user? email hello@redchurch.au to set up booking access)

  • on your own or with others

  • attend a regular prayer meeting

    • Wednesday Mornings – 7:30 – 8:00 am Blackburn South

    • Thursday Evenings – 7:30 – 8:30 pm Camberwell

  • set aside half an hour to pray in your huddle or discipleship group

Regardless of what it looks like: Keep it simple. Keep it real. Keep it up.

Hearing from God

As we seek God’s face this winter, we are listening to what He has to say to us. You’re invited to The Lectio Course, where, over five weeks, we’ll learn the ancient practice of Lectio Divina, a prayerful way of reading the Bible that allows for God to speak to us through scripture in powerful ways.
