UK: Community Shed continues to bring connection

12 November 2026

We thank God that the Community Shed in Carlisle was able to re-open last spring when a new location was found. Mission partner Garry Ion asks for prayer for the work of the Community Shed, and its sustainability and direction so that they can connect with the neediest, especially men, who feel disconnected, who perhaps have spent most of their adult lives in prison – physically and/or emotionally.

Pray for conversations, that Garry and the team may tread carefully and speak boldly about our Heavenly Father.

In the run-up to Christmas, the shed is showing the first season of the TV series The Chosen. Please pray for this special time to explore the gospel and life of Jesus.
