Written by Simon Anthony

Evangelism and mission are very important to us. Each Good Friday we get together with the other 3 churches in Pocklington for our Walk of Witness when we carry a cross through the town centre, stopping every so often for readings, prayers and praise. Good Friday 2010 was a very special day for us when over 100 onlookers watched 9 people get baptised on the pavement outside our church!

Throughout the year, we often go to the town centre on busy Saturday mornings to hand out Christian newspapers and offer to pray for people on the street with some wonderful results! We also host evangelistic events every so often, including two visits from Barry Woodward and an evening with John Gaughan from Herman's Hermits.

We also support the following missionaries through prayer and finance.

David Taylor and his family
Colombia Child Care

Educate, feed and provide medical support for over 1,000 of the poorest children.

Support the families with real solutions, such as improving living conditions, supplying housing and medical support.

Veron and Claire Kinkead
A Heart for Jamaica

Evangelism and Church planting

Humanitarian aid: Providing help for the poor, in the form of food, furniture and housing.

Teaching in the Bible College, where Veron is the Director and Claire lectures.

Tony Esther Payne
Hebron School, India

Hebron School is a home for children of missionaries and an important base where they can feel secure.

Tony and Esther's main role is as Dorm parents, but they have other teaching and supervisory roles in the school.

Caroline West

Caroline is working on language development and bible translation among the local people in Columbia.

Some of our members are also involved in the following missionary work.

Andrew Shuttleworth
Vision for Asia

Vision for Asia is a UK based Christian charity which operates within South Asia. Founded in 2002, our aims are the advancement of the Christian faith and to demonstrate the Love of God by providing practical relief to those in need, hardship or distress. Quite simply, Vision for Asia exists to provide practical and spiritual support to communities in one of the poorest areas in the world.
