Dear Friends,
Just a few words to thank you all who came to the Newport PWMI meeting on a very wet evening at the Salvation Army Citadel last night. Spirits were certainly not dampened inside, however, and it was good to see over fifty people attend on a soaking Bank Holiday weekend to hear the splendid Tom McMahon from "The Berean Call" in Oregon, America.
Tom spoke on "Apostasy In The Last Days, And Its Antidote", and including the lively Q&A session which followed, the meeting did not finish until 10pm! After this there was some fine fellowship over drinks and nibbles, and we did not finally lock up and close the doors until 11.25pm!
Many thanks to David Clay (Abergavenny) for playing the music for us, to Andrew Phipps (Pontypridd) who stood in for Pastor Arthur Wicks at short notice to lead us all in prayer, to Trevor and Maggie Stewart-Sweet (Marlow) for organising Tom's tour of the UK, and to Nancy Williams (Bassaleg) for her usual warm hospitality in providing accommodation for Tom, Trevor and Maggie.
It was good to see a strong contingent of people from Bethany Baptist Church in Pontypridd in attendance, and we are delighted that they are opening the sixth branch of the PWMI on the 29th September when our National Director, the Rev Colin Le Noury will officially open this new branch.
We were very pleased to receive Tom (who is a very close friend of the highly respected Dave Hunt) last night, and this was his only speaking engagement in Wales on his UK tour. He has already ministered at Saltburn in the North East, at Reddish in Stockport, at Barrow in Trent, and today he moves on for the weekend "Truth For Youth" Conference in Devon. Later in the week, Tom will be speaking in Southampton, Marlow, Bere Regis in Dorset, Newent in Gloucs, and also at Tony Pearce's excellent Bridge Lane Christian Fellowship in North London.
These past twelve months our PWMI groups in South Wales have been privileged to receive renowned international speakers such as Tom McMahon and Dr Thomas Ice (America), Dr Jan Van Wyk (South Africa), Jacob Prasch (Moriel Ministries), as well as many other splendid British speakers.
We are very thankful to the Lord for bringing these great men of God to minister to us in the Valleys for as Tom said last night "We are living in perilous times in these last days" as he then proceded to warn us of the apostasy that is sweeping the churches in America, and which is now coming very clearly to the shores of the British Isles.
May He continue to bless us with such wonderful speakers as we seek to pass on our urgent message to the people of Wales of the imminent Rapture of the Church to Heavenly Glory, and the soon coming Second Advent of the Lord Jesus Christ back to earth.
Maranatha Blessings To You All,
Neville.
