overseas to partlcipate regularly. One of our team has moved to Malawl wlth herjob and another lives in
Ghana so they are both able to continue connecting. These zoom meetings have been well attended and
gives everyone the opportunity to be actively involved.

From early 2024 we have gathered many people from across the UK, via zoom to PRAY FOR THE
GOVERNMENT, MONARCHY AND THE CHURCH. This will continue until at least the end of 2024,
BIG PUSH started in January 2009 and Since that time we have met 173 times (including via online during
covid restrictionsl.
