The changing seasons remind us of God’s goodness; that he is with us, and in control, in all of life. The summer is typically a season of warmth and light, of sunshine and freedom. The gospel gives us these things in abundance! It’s our joy as Cor Deo (and Christians) to share and spread God’s message of hope. It’s a message that warms and transforms our cold hearts, from the inside out. And it is at the centre of everything we do.In this email, you’ll see what we’ve been doing in the last few months, and also we’ll give you some diary dates of upcoming Cor Deo opportunities.
We’re very grateful to God for Cor Deo. It’s a privilege to be supported and prayed for by you – thank you! Please don’t stop!
God-willing we’ll have another Women’s Intensive in 2020…check out the dates below!We also hosted our first ever John Feast. Four days, enjoying every word of John’s Gospel. It was an international group and we all agreed that being together made our hearts sing! Peter has written about the experience, and you can read it here. Here is a snippet: “We were all blown away by the wonder of the cross and the revelation of God’s heart for us.”
This year’s ELF was excellent. Along with Steve and Fraser (Cor Deo guys from Swindon), Peter and Mike led the ‘Bible Teachers and Preachers Network.’ There are two groups – ‘Foundational’ for first-timers, and ‘Advanced’ for returning participants. You can read about our sessions here and here.
The ELF is a great opportunity for us to invest in and engage with Christian leaders in Europe, and preaching is such a crucial area of transformation for our continent. As the network’s blurb says, “The church is always at its healthiest where there is a passion for the preaching of God’s Word.”
Next year, Peter is the main conference speaker! So please join us as we prepare and pray!
A unique ‘taste’ of Cor Deo – two days at the end of a week, with all the features of a normal Intensive (John’s Gospel, church history, practical application) just shorter!
