Thank you for your prayers RE: The Alresford Agricultural Show which was a huge success with thousands attending.
Our tent (New Farm Chapel & Friends) of witness had face painting, tattoos (temporary ones!), Pets Corner, crafts & games area and my MEGA second-hand bookstall.
Lots of books sold including 11 Bibles sold and 8 New Testaments given away. So many good conversations had with people of all faiths and none.
The highlight of the day was the 5 children with came into our stand with their Grandmother, when they saw my box of Bibles their eyes lit up and asked Grandma if they could have one! It was a joy to give them a Gideon New Testament and also a comic book of Bible stories, you should have seen the smiles and excitement on their faces.

28 boxes full of books loaded into Tom’s pick up ready for tomorrow!

Just 1 day to go until The Alresford Show (Saturday 6th September). The Alresford Show is described as ‘The jewel in the crown of Hampshire agricultural shows.’

This year we expect thousands of people to attended the show which takes pride in being traditional and quintessentially English.

A good day out and if you come make sure you visit our stand #D84 (I say our stand but we are working alongside New Farm Chapel & friends).

There is a freebie from the biggest second-hand bookstall at the show!
To claim your freebie ask for a copy of the ‘IGNITE’ magazine.
