From Bath to Cardiff
Posted on November 27th, 2011 at 11:29 PM / No comments
The Bath mission finished on Friday with yet more encouragements. By the end of the week we had seen over 50 sign up to investigate Jesus further and about 15 make professions of faith. The Curry night was packed with 300 people filling each room of the church. I chatted with one student who was deeply moved by the cross and really impacted by the unfairness of it. Another girl had been brought up in a Christian family but walked away from it all but, along with several others, trusted Christ that night. Pray for the CU as they follow up the interest that the week has generated and that it wouldn’t get dropped. I heard just today oaf another girl who came along during the week who has given her life to Jesus.
Yesterday I preached at the wedding of my good friend, Pete Yates. it was great to be with him and Colleen for the big day and a privilege to speak at the service. I herd some really encouraging comments from those who didn’t know Jesus but who were really struck by what they heard.
Tonight I arrived in Cardiff ready for the big joint universities mission ‘ Convinced?’
There will be events across all the Cardiff Universities and colleges. I will speak each lunch time at the Cardiff University lunch time talks and on Monday and Thursday at the international student meals. Michael Green will speak each night Monday – Thursday at the main evening events hosted at Highfields Church – but for the week it will be transformed into a very cool cafe. There is a big team of CU guests from across Wales, the rest of the UK and as far away as Serbia.
Do pray for the week that we would see the Lord at work in the lives of many people. Please pray for energy and freshness for me as my energy levels are already quite but I am very encouraged and excited to get going.
