Citytots has now been running for over five years. The format has not really changed from when we started. We aim to provide a welcoming environment for local parents/carers and children under five, where the gospel is communicated through stories, crafts, songs and conversations.

At the beginning of the school year in August 2014 we were very thin on the ground with only one or two families coming to our group. We prayed for more interest amongst local families to make it worthwhile continuing this ministry and God answered our prayers in a big way. We now have about 10 families regularly attending. There is a good mix of Christians and non-Christians; parents and grandparents; and local families and families from a bit further away. It has been a blessing to see friendships developing within the group and to see people benefiting from the Bible stories and conversations.

Points of praise...

• Praise the Lord for bringing people to the group.
• Praise the Lord for a committed team.
• Praise the Lord for working in people’s hearts and using this ministry to reveal Himself to those who seek Him.

Things to pray for...

• We would like to continue to pray for all the people in the group in the different stages of their walk with the Lord or their search for truth. We depend on Him for wisdom in communicating the gospel.
• Please pray for us as a team, that we may keep our eyes fixed on Jesus and that we use every opportunity to proclaim the gospel.
• We could do with a larger team and pray that the right person will be called to serve in this ministry.
