2020 October update

A local church managed to get permission to hold their services in the grounds of an old English castle in Kent

Dear Friends,

Despite the constantly fluctuating conditions different governments are imposing as a result of Coronavirus, I hope that you, like us, have discovered some positive outcomes amid the negative ones. It has been personally fulfilling to be able to speak from our home to 50 pastors in S India, to a church in Panama as well as to UK churches. Our regular Sunday Zoom Bible teaching has 20-30 joining us from different nations where since May, we have studied Ruth, Daniel & Jonah. Last Sunday, we began a series on a history of Christian mission. Email if you want the link to join ‘live’ or to listen to any recorded sessions.

Currently we spend half a week at home near London and half a week with my mother who lives alone in SW England – her nearest supermarket is more than 5 miles/8 kms away. She enjoys our company! Malou has appreciated the time to develop the garden, including harvesting a bumper crop of tomatoes.

It has been encouraging to find that AMEN Partners around the world continue to be involved in ministry, often in some new ways. As we are currently celebrating AMEN’s 25th anniversary, we are about to mail out a special extended celebration edition (see below).
