Westminster Theological Centre (WTC) is raising funds to plant a Bible college inside a prison! We were recently approached by the prison’s managing chaplain about setting up theological classes inside HMP The Mount, in response to so many men coming to faith. WTC is the first theological college to have been invited into a prison to deliver a programme to inmates. This means the men will have the opportunity to go deeper in their walk with God, gain an academic qualification, and be commissioned into peer-to-peer ministry within the prison estate.
Target Amount: We need £83,000 in seed funding for the first two years of setting up the course.
Prayer Point: Please pray for a revival across the British prison estate, and for political favour from the new government.

How it works
The tradition of The Gathering Auction goes back further than we care to remember, and is unlike anything you will have experienced before.
The best way to sum it up in one word is OUTRAGEOUS.
It is an opportunity for outrageous giving to some highly worthy causes connected with 24-7 Prayer.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much can I bid?
We want everyone to be involved, but please only donate what you can afford to give. We’re encouraging outrageous generosity, but if you give £1 or £1000, you are still a star in our eyes.
Can I donate towards more than one item?
Of course! Donate towards as many items as many times as you like but, as hard as it may be, try not to get too carried away!
Where does my money go?
Each lot will support a different cause, and all causes are listed on the website. ALL the money received from the donations will go to that cause.
