Two requests in two days for PowerPoint slides for talks well over ten years old!

As Solomon wrote, “Cast your bread on the surface of the waters, for you will find it after many days.”

Good to hear from Alfie a man we met at Speakers Corner two weeks ago, sadly Alfie has many problems but also has a ‘wobbling’ Christian faith, after a good chat Jamie Broadey prayed with him in Hyde Park and the good news is Alfie has since booked himself into rehab as he tries to overcome his addiction.

Please pray that God bring other Christians into Alfie’s life!

On October 14th, 1855, a carpenter set up a soapbox in Hyde Park, near Marble Arch in London, and made a speech to onlookers complaining abut high food prices. Thus was born the tradition that became known as Speakers’ Corner, the place where free speech is exercised by anyone who wishes to.

166 years later the tradition carries on – looking forward today to supporting Christians on their soapboxes and engaging in some one-to-one evangelism

This week sees a change in the weather but many of the faces and the arguments at Speakers Corner will no doubt remain the same – so looking for some variation of content or persons to fuel this weeks discussions – but one-to-one evangelism often throws up something or someone unexpected!

With Jamie Broadey at Hyde Park, Speakers Corner. London.

This weekend we should have been heading down to Bournemouth for another brilliant ‘BodyBuilders’ Houseparty, alas due to Covid-19 regulations this will not be happening!

Afternoon:
One-to-one evangelism Speakers Corner. Hyde Park. London.

Good News & Bad News – Penny’s Noah’s Ark Carer & Toddler Group is back in the building, but due to Covid-19 restrictions we have limited places and we are already full!
Sorry if you are unable to join with us at the moment, hopefully we can add more places over the next few months.

Penny text to say “ yes Noah’s Ark was back on this morning, delighted parents and excited children!! One little girl just kept jumping in excitement from the moment she walked in the door and all through the story. Some lockdown babies looking a bit overwhelmed but most seem to enjoy it and want to come back. One new contact amongst the nine families. Weird to have such a pared down version of our normal Thursdays, but certainly better than online!! Pray that families and helpers stay safe, and no difficulties with people complying with Covid rules, thank you”
