One of the fruits of the ongoing Life22 mission initiative of A Passion for Life has been the initiation of some promising conversations around Scotland about the possibility of the establishment or in some cases re-establishment of Regional Gospel Partnerships (RGPs).
Nick McQuaker, the development officer for the partnerships, has been on a tour around Scotland meeting key church leaders in Edinburgh, Fife, Aberdeen, Moray, and Ayrshire.
These conversations are very much in their early stages and your prayers would be very much appreciated, but the interest in effective gospel partnership is strong. The materials presented by Nick resonated with the existing informal relational networks dotted around the country; the sharing of lessons learned, materials produced, training courses established and innovative events from the network of partnerships in England was highly valued. Additionally, the resources produced by A Passion for Life, which was birthed out of the RGPs, have been well received in Scotland, and the number of churches who engaged with the month of mission significantly increased.
