Preaching in Wales







We were so blessed to be in Wales. Brother James was so kind to open his mother's home for us all to stay. He has a website and been writing articles about JCM at www.christiandoctrine.com

It was a big beautiful home that was on the market to sell. We prayed and it sold the next day praise God! The first night we went to check out the bar district in Swansea. The shops close at 5pm there so the streets were not that full. We found a good spot to preach in front of the bars and we had a few interactions. The reaction here was much calmer and people actually told us this country needs the gospel preached here. One young man we spoke to was Irish but was convicted that we were preaching and he said he wish he could get his life right and preach too, but his sins were holding him down and he couldn't or wouldn't let go. Right before we left a girl passed out from drinking and was almost dead, we called the ambulance. We treated her the best we can before the medics arrived, and gave her friend a gospel tract too.



The next day we had full day of preaching in the downtown shops. At the beginning the security was reluctant to let us keep preaching, but let us keep our open air amps going the whole day. We split up into 3 teams and thundered out the gospel for 8 hours, had many one on one conversations and lots of tracts handed out. God was glorified in bring the gospel to Wales that day.



We had some time to do a little touring of the Town. Brother James took us to Reese Howell College and to a beautiful channel and a castle. Some went to preached at the universities but was hut down in a matter of a few hours. Later brother James blessed us with a traditional English meal, Chicken, Fish and Chips. We had communion and prayed up for our last big night. We were going to the bar street again, that would have tons of people there. We all stayed in one big team and covered and watched each others back as we preached to multitudes of lost people. They covered the streets with drunkards and ladies dress so bad it was sad and provocative. But we thundered out the gospel the whole night with pleading and lifting up in worship the preach of Jesus Christ. Thank God no one was hurt or anything and the police did nothing to us, but actually was driving by making sure things didn't get out of hand. What great favour our God gives us as we seek his face, lift his name up on the streets and give him glory. Many souls heard and were talked to and given tracts to. A pastor Welshman open aired preach with us for the first time, it was amazing! To God be the glory alone. Well we are off on long drive to Glasgow, Scotland now. Thanks again for the prayers and support.

  1. Praise the Lord!!! What a blessing and great encouragment to hear the reports and know that God's word is being proclaimed to many people. I'm greatly anticipating the videos and the stories that you bring from your brief missionary sojourn. Praying for you all my brothers, may God be glorified!:-)
