Pete Greig: Prayer that’s Faithful, Faith-Filled, and Fully Awake.
I was privileged to attend this year’s Wildfires event. My first reflection is no wonder it’s grown every year. I was invited in previous years and thought ‘it’s too far from Manchester’ but I’ve realised it’s not going to get any closer just because I moan about it and it was definitely worth the drive.
This summer, the tent was bigger and the hunger greater, and I was so glad to be one of the 4000 adults (plus 2000 children and young people) who attended and actually it was fantastic NOT doing anything but receiving and worshipping. On the first night Pete spoke and my notes are below – brilliant stuff!
