OTF Schools Team take on national role in running prayer spaces at Wildfire 2023

Having run Prayer Spaces in Schools for the last 10 years our Schools team were excited to be invited to run the PSIS tent at Wildfires.

Lizzi & Suzanne teamed up with PSIS national director Tim Abbott to create a prayer experience at the centre of the Wildfires festival.

Arriving on Sunday evening with boxes full of kit, we worked into the night, with only fairy lights to see by!

The next 3 days saw 1000s of people from across the country, of all ages pitch their tents on the Wiston estate.

Our prayer tent was just one of many initiatives to help people to explore the Christian faith. We set up 8 different prayer activities and we delighted to see individuals, couples and whole families come in to explore prayer together.

Each day we spent 30 minutes telling people all about PSIS and how they could take ideas back to their local schools.

It was a privilege to work with the national PS team and to spend 3 days in a tent in the Sussex countryside helping people to pray!
