Prayer at Baptist Assembly 2026 from Phil Jump
As Baptists gather in Harrogate for our annual Assembly, churches and congregations across our Baptist community are being invited to come together in prayer

https://ow.ly/cfly50YXzOL

The call to prayer coincides with the Sunday morning gathering in Harrogate, and churches are invited to pause to pray in their own local services alongside this.
We offer the time of 11.05 am or as close to that as possible.

Leading in a small church is a unique and faithful calling. It can be deeply rewarding, but it can also feel isolating at times. This gathering creates space for lay leaders to come together, learn from one another’s experience, share both encouragements and challenges, and root everything in prayer.

Together we’ll explore practical wisdom for small church leadership, reflect on what God is doing in our communities, and strengthen one another for the work ahead. Whether you are new to leadership or have been serving for many years, this is a space to be refreshed, equipped, and reminded that you are not alone.

We will meet on the 12th May @ 7:30pm-8.30pm on Zoom, https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84386288331?pwd=aZzOgWkSWf6QFmi1urmUoNUn9huLK7.1
