"Called To Influence" Course
Have you ever considered that God’s missional plan for you sits in your everyday life? Only a small percentage of Christians are called to full time church ministry, but we are all instructed to, “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” (Matthew 28:19) By radically changing the way you think about work and learning how to partner with God as you go about your daily activities, you can experience greater job satisfaction as you bring Kingdom influence and transformation to those around you. Wherever God has positioned you, this is where you are called to influence.
This course begins on the 22nd April and continues over seven consecutive Wednesday evenings, 19.00-21.00 via Zoom. To learn more about the course and to sign up if interested contact www.calledtoinfluence.com/grouptraining.

Baptist Together News
A Message From Lynn Green - General Secretary, Baptist Union of Great Britain:-
Mark Elder has been elected as the Baptists Together President for 2027-8. Thank you so much for your participation, it is a wonderful expression of who we are as Baptists to discern the mind of Christ together. I want to express a big thank you to all our candidates who had prayerfully explored a potential call to the Presidency. I look forward to working and praying alongside Mark when his term begins. Before then I will induct Alex Afriyie as our President for 2026-7 at our Baptist Assembly in May. Please pray for Alex and Mark as they prepare to serve our Union. The role of President is enabled through Home Mission, and we are grateful for faithful giving which enables so many aspects of our national life together. With my prayers for you and your community this Easter. 'I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the sharing of his sufferings by becoming like him in his death’ (Philippians 3:10) Yours in Christ, Lynn Green
