Project Postcode

Nottingham Arnold Corps of the Salvation Army have started a movement which has just been promoted at the national Salvation Army 'Roots' gathering with 3.5k people. 'Project Postcode' is a prayer movement for mission where local Christians pray for their neighbourhood. I think it could become a significant follow up to Hope08 as it grows and gets taken up by different churches. For now see the website:

Jane Holloway is promoting all of the Global day of Prayer initaitives in these islands through a new website. It also has links to the global network focussed on Pentecost this year.
