We want to share the <\/span><span style=\"font-family: calibri, sans-serif;\">good news of Jesus in ways that are understood and received by South Asians. We are conscious of persecution and pressures that some are facing in South Asia. And we want to pray for even greater unity, so that we can encourage and strengthen each other.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: calibri, sans-serif;\">You will find details in the attached flyer. Our focus will be prayer but we will also have short talks as well as time to share local needs and learn from each other. As you will see, there will be food and time for fellowship.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: calibri, sans-serif;\">The programme is organised by the South Asian Forum of the Evangelical Alliance, in partnership with the Scottish Asian Christian Fellowship and others. This gathering is part of a series in different parts of the country. The group that met in Leicester last year sent this report:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm 1cm 0.0001pt;\" class=\"Pa3\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: calibri, sans-serif;\" class=\"A9\">&#8220;We were all linked through having connections in some way with the large South Asian community in Leicester. We were also linked by our desire to witness for Jesus Christ in this city. What was remarkable was the diversity of people who attended. So it was good to come together! <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm 1cm 0.0001pt;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm 1cm 0.0001pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: calibri, sans-serif;\" class=\"A9\">&#8220;During times of prayer we shared some of our needs, hopes and joys that we felt as churches working in the city (and for some further afield). In between some to the local leaders gave short talks. We were reminded that we are one in Christ. It is out of our unity and our fellowship that the world will come to see and know Jesus.&#8221;<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: calibri, sans-serif;\">We very much hope that you can join us and look forward to meeting together.
