Easter Community Prayer Walk – Praying for Gospel Hope in Our City

As we journey through Holy Week and prepare to celebrate the risen Christ, we invite you to join us for a special Easter Community Prayer Walk on Tuesday 15th April. We will gather at 6:30pm at the Salvation Army, York Street, and finish around 8:00pm at Alexandra Presbyterian Church. Along the way, we will stop at several local churches and key community sites in Tiger’s Bay and Mountcollyer, lifting our city in prayer.

This prayer walk is an expression of Gospel partnership — a visible sign that we are one body in Christ, united not by tradition or denomination, but by the shared hope of the resurrection. It is our desire to walk humbly, pray fervently, and proclaim Christ clearly in the heart of North Belfast.

As we walk and pray, we will be interceding for the people who live, work, and worship in our neighbourhood. We will pray for schools, families, frontline workers, those struggling with addiction or loneliness, and those in positions of leadership. We long to see lives transformed by the grace of God, and communities renewed by the love of Jesus.

The Church exists not for itself, but as a witness to the world — a signpost to the kingdom of God. In a time when many feel divided or discouraged, this is an opportunity for believers from different congregations to stand together, not in uniformity but in unity, declaring that Jesus is Lord and that His light shines in the darkness.

We warmly encourage you to come, to bring friends or members of your fellowship, and to walk with us as we seek the peace and good of the city (Jeremiah 29:7). May our feet carry the Good News, and our prayers prepare the ground for Gospel fruit in the days to come.

“And how beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” – Romans 10:15

Opportunities To Gather and Grow || SPB NOTES || Coming up to Winter 2024

As we enter a season full of opportunities to gather and grow, I want to encourage everyone to participate in the life of our church. Hebrews 10:24-25 reminds us, “And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another.” Gathering is a vital part of our faith, and these events are designed to strengthen our fellowship, prayer life, and outreach efforts. Each event, whether it’s our community prayer meeting, the winter coat project, or the Advent services, is a chance for us to come together as the body of Christ, using the unique gifts God has given us. 1 Corinthians 12:12-14 highlights that we are all members of one body, and every part is needed to function as God intended. When we gather, pray, and support the church’s work, we not only bless each other but our entire community. I encourage you to engage deeply in these events and find where you can serve. Whether it’s helping ...

Community Payer Meeting at St Paul's & St Barnabas

Community Prayer Gathering This past Wednesday evening, we were privileged to gather in the newly refurbished lounge at St Paul’s & St Barnabas for a community prayer meeting. It was a joy to welcome friends from other churches across the area as we united in prayer for our church, our community, and the wider world. The theme for the evening was to seek God's guidance, and blessing for our church and community. Scripture encourages us to pray without ceasing ( 1 Thessalonians 5:17 ) and to come boldly to the throne of grace ( Hebrews 4:16 ), and so we lifted up our voices in faith. During the prayer meeting, we focused on key areas: our local community, the great work of the churches in the area , and personal renewal. Encouraged by the echols of Philippians 4:6 , where we are encouraged to bring our requests to God with thanksgi...
