The impetus for this collection of resources is the generous bequest to the Living Church Foundation from the Anglican Fellowship of Prayer. Here is the story of that important ministry and their decision to bring their ministry to a close and to ask TLC to take up its mantle: “Anglican Fellowship of Prayer Pass the Baton to TLC” The links below are one of several resources that have been made possible because of their generosity.
