The Fashion prayer group at Holy Trinity Brompton in London’s Knightsbridge is now arguably the trendiest prayer group in the country.
Some of England’s leading fashionistas have joined up for the regular morning prayer meetings, which help Christians in the fashion industry stay connected.
The meetings are headed by Pete Greig of HTB, who said fashion has perhaps so far been viewed as superficial by the church, and that it is now time to work with, and pray for, those who work in one of the biggest and most important industries in the country.
Another driving force behind the re-envigorated fashion prayer meetings at HTB is Christina Abbott, a former model and now Director of Client Services, and VIP clients, at quintessentially British luxury brand Burberry.
Other Christians among the nearly 200 well-dressed attendees included people from fashion labels such as Jimmy Choo, and the Chief Operating Officer of the British Fashion Council, Simon Ward.
Ward spoke about his experiences as a Christian in the fashion industry and how his faith now helps him in his work.
The fashion pack were also represented by Christians working in sales as well as shop owners and assistants, designers, models, stylists, patternmakers, tailors, buyers, PRs, merchandisers, Shop assistants and people working in distribution.
COLOSSIANS 3:14 – Above all these, put on love, which binds everything together in love.
