We’re so encouraged by hearing what’s going on in the day to day lives of the members of Mahabba Network.

One thing that we hear all the time is the power of sharing stories with our Muslim friends and colleagues. Have you ever taken a story about Jesus and shared it with a friend? It’s a great way to share, and value each other’s thoughts on scripture. Plus, it puts Jesus right at the centre of these conversations.

A network member shares this story…

 “How could I help my friend think about Jesus? I’d been meeting with him regularly, yet it was hard to turn the conversation to Jesus. As I prayed about this, God encouraged me to take along a gospel and read a passage with my friend. So, now, each time I meet him, I find a story of Jesus which relates to our conversation and open the book and we read it together. “What does this tell us about Jesus?” I ask or “What does this teaching help you think about?” In the middle of the conversation there is a focus on Jesus. A time for God to speak.”

Help Mahabba grow & develop: Become a volunteer

As a relational network, volunteers have been vital to the growth of Mahabba. We currently have some gaps in our Support Circle, which help support local groups and Network activity.

If you want to serve the Mahabba vision, and have a few hours spare per week or month, we’d love to hear from you. Your practical support can help us encourage ordinary Christians as they pray and share their faith with Muslims.

We are looking for several individuals who can help us in the following areas. Training can be given, all roles are flexible and are on a voluntary basis.

Get in touch with us if you are interested in any of the following at hello@mahabbanetwork.com. We’ll then set up a short call with you to see how you can get involved.

1.    You like technology so can help us keep the Mahabba website updated with events and resources

2.    You’re well organised so can handle e-mail enquiries and get messages to people in the Network

3.    You’re a systems person, so like keeping lists and databases up to date and help us with ChurchSuite

4.    As a sociable and social-savvy person, you can help us produce and publish prayer reminders on Facebook and Twitter

5.    You love building community, so can help foster healthy discussions and engagement on our community platform (Discourse)

For more info and for a friendly chat about whether one of these could be a good fit for you, get in touch with Simon by e-mail hello@mahabbanetwork.com
