Responding to the prompt (of the Holy Spirit)

A meeting for all across Porstmouth Diocese      Saturday 6th February 10am to 1pm on Zoom

Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit    Mt 28 19

Do not worry about what to say or how to say it.  At that time you will be given what to sayv    Mt 10: 19

Responding to the prompt image

Sometimes we might think there is the opportunity to mention Jesus or prayer, sometimes we need a little more confidence to take that prompt of the Holy Spirit.  Sometimes our prayer is busy, and we could listen more to hear the prompt of the Holy Spirit.

This online event is an opportunity to inspire and give time for people from across the Diocese to hear from others about how we, as Church, in Portsmouth have responded – or how we might respond-- in practical ways, to the Great Commission (Mt 28: 19).  We cannot make it to a mountain in Galilee or possibly even to our local church, but we can gather on Zoom for a couple of hours, to be inspired and supported in our mission.

The timetable is 10am to 1pm on Saturday 6th February.  The link will only be sent to those who register.  There will be a break.  We will open with Prayer led by Fr Kelvin from Boars Hill Carmel near Oxford.  Fr Mike Schmitz will challenge and inspire us, in a video, to respond to the spirit just as the apostles did at Pentecost.

In breakout rooms, we will share how we think we might respond to Jesus’s commission, or share what has already worked, or could work.

We will also hear from several projects that have already inspired many to bring the Good News to those who have not heard. 

In these times when there are so many different challenges, we need to get together as Church to be inspired.  We hope that participation in this event will inspire you to respond to the Holy Spirit to bring the Good News to others in your own day to day lives.

Thanks to the working group who have made this possible.
