It hardly got a mention on the BBC news but on 2^nd April a severe earthquake, which measured 8.1 on the Richter scale, shook the Solomon Islands. This resulted in huge tidal waves as the tsunami wrought death and destruction on many islands in the western province.

Sharif Gulsher, Local Preacher from Ingol, is going on a mission to Uganda on Boxing Day and is looking for support. See Sharif’s website for details.

There is a piece in tonight’s (Thursday) Evening Post.

May we remind you of the John Archer event, which is being held on the 19th of November at Deepdale, Preston North End’s football ground?

It promises to be a night of excellent entertainment and a chance for non-Christians to get a positive view of Christianity. The hope is that if you have any folk on the fringe of your churches you will buy some tickets and bring them along to this event. We are hoping for around 300 people to be there which will add to the atmosphere. Please could you think about this as something you and your church could support and use as an evangelistic tool.

The tickets cost £4 each. Why not buy a number of them and distribute them to those whom you think would appreciate a good night out? All I ask is that you pay for all the tickets you take as it would cause a few financial headaches to receive 50 returned (and unpaid for) tickets on the night.

To purchase tickets could you please telephone me on 01254 200889 or Catherine Moxon on 01254 201109.

Make sure you are not the one who is disappointed having missed out on this event!

God bless,

Nick
