Hungry

We've just got back from a few days away in London, staying with Katie. Hayley also joined us, Katie's boyfriend Chris came over for a couple of evenings and we spend Sunday with Andrew and Tracy Bale at Dartford.

It was good to meet up and just be with family and friends but there is that special fellowship that exists between us all because of our shared love for Jesus and our passion for mission. We are loving our work in Pill. There are just not enough hours in the day to do all that is on our hearts. Katie and Chris are praying and exploring new ideas about how to reach out to the lost at the heart of the capital, through their service at Regent Hall corps. Hayley is excited about being part of the SA in Colchester and witnessing to her uni friends. Andrew and Tracy are living and breathing salvation and holiness in Dartford.

Whilst away I read a biography of George Whitefield, who spent a lot of time preaching and seeing thousands comes to faith in Bristol. The book is, of course full of tales of revival. It made me cry, it made me hungry and it's increased the intensity of my prayers.

Send a new touch of power Lord, to Regent Hall Corps, Colchester, Pill, Dartford and wherever you are.


God bless

Carol

Thanks for the encouraging word Carol - don't forget in the words of my anonymous African friend 'Don't worry brother revival is coming!'

Love and prayers
