2012 visit to Britain, day 3

It was another good day. We started slowly and hanged around at the Christofides’ and left around 11. We initially planned to go to town, but finally decided to have lunch at one2two, Heath Church’s tea room and bookshop. We had good food for cheap, and saw a few friends there. We’ll be visiting the Heath Church next week.

After that, we took off for Aberystwyth. It was raining most of the way, but we still enjoyed some nice views. After tea, I went to speak about the work at Alfred Place Baptist Church. A few people new Guingamp and have been there several times, but they didn’t know about the church. It was a good meeting, with a lot of questions at the end. Afterwards, people came to speak to me. This meeting being the first on our tour of Wales, I struggled a bit to start with, but it eventually got better.

Now for a good night sleep and a relaxed day tomorrow.

2012 visit to Britain, days 1 and 2

We arrived in the UK on Saturday afternoon after a beautiful crossing. The see was a bit choppy, but the sun was shining and we ended up spending most of the time on the deck. The kids were great considering it was a 6 hours ferry crossing.

We then made our way to Clevedon for our first stop. Brian and Viv, from Clevedon Evangelical church hosted us for the night, and I preached in there in the morning. In the afternoon, we made our way to Cardiff, our second stop on the road. I preached in St Mellons Baptist Church. We stayed overnight with their minister, Andy Christofides.

Today, we’re off to Aberystwyth for two nights. I’ll be speaking in Alfred Place Baptist church tonight and the Welsh evangelical church tomorrow.
