The Lord graciously fulfilled His word, \u201cJesus Christ came into the world to save sinners\u201d and this He did.<br \/>\nIt seemed for a short while that the walk of the cross would not take place owing to illness two weeks previous. We thank the dear Lord for strengthening us by His precious word.<br \/>\nWe are now looking forward to our time of teaching with Paul Carter and the forthcoming summer shows \u201cGod willing\u201d.<br \/>\nHave a blessed summer and maybe we will see you at the shows.<br \/>\nEvery blessing Mick and Anne<\/p>\n<p>Like Mick, thinking of our Easter witness, we were much encouraged on Good Friday by the walk of witness joining with us for a time in St James Square Newport. It is so good when we are able to join together to honour our dear Lord in this way. There is no better time than at Easter to witness publically for the Lord.<br \/>\n\u201cBehold, how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity<br \/>\nIt is like the precious ointment on the head that ran down on the beard, Aaron&#8217;s beard, that went down to the mouth of his garments; like the dew of Hermon that came down on the mountains of Zion; for there Jehovah commanded the blessing, life forevermore\u2019 -Psalm 133 .<br \/>\nThank you for all the prayer and financial support we receive on this journey together.<br \/>\nEvery blessing Roy<\/p>\n<p>By the grace of God, we enjoyed a wonderful Easter week and were glad to carry the cross as a witness once again. On Good Friday we also were able to spend time at St James\u2019 Square, Newport, for street witness, with song, sketch board &amp; tracts. There were a good number of con-versations during this time with passersby and we hope many will think about the faith. It was also a joy to spend some time with the Newport walk of witness as their team came through the square and stopped to join in some hymns with us.<br \/>\nEvery blessing Nigel<\/p>\n<p>Prayer Clock<br \/>\nIf anyone would like to join the prayer clock to pray a 15 minute prayer slot or more per day, then please contact Dave Sibley on:- 854903 \/ 07967912226 or e-mail at dave_lin@hotmail.co.uk<br \/>\nIf you have a prayer need please contact Dave and we will pray for you.<\/p>\n<p>Teaching Weekend \u2013 Paul Carter<br \/>\nWe look forward to receiving Paul once more for the first of 3 weekends this year as detailed below. The teaching event is on Friday evening &amp; Saturday morning. On the Sunday these are scheduled preaching engagements. Dates for September &amp; November can be seen on our website www.godpod.org.uk. Anyone is welcome to come and join with us.

The questions asked vary and some put us on the spot, but we always endeavour to give an honest answer. Some ask about our initials JCWGVA or about the pictures on the bus. This gives us an opportunity to share the gospel in a sensitive manner. We are not in the numbers game, but we rejoice when a decision for Christ is made.<br \/>\nWe have been called to be seed sowers and it is a privilege to do this. We are often encouraged by our fellow Christians who visit or acknowledge us when they pass by. We know that the person we represent the Lord Jesus Christ is not welcomed by many and so we expect a negative response to the gospel. We thank God that for the time being we have the liberty to share but who knows how long for? As you will understand it can be a challenging work mentally &amp; spiritually but worth it, every minute. Glory to Jesus the risen one who loves us eternally and gave himself for us!<br \/>\nPlease pray for all involved throughout our country who preach the gospel regularly.<\/p>\n<p>Update on events<br \/>\nWe have recently attended the Bembridge Street fayre on the May bank holiday. This event was well attended. We set our book stall out and our ladies were engaged with face painting. This, along with some seed sowing and the visual witness of the bus vehicle, added up to a time well spent. The Lord willing, we are still on course to set up at two of the summer shows \u2013 Chale Show on Sat1st &amp; Sun 2nd August; Wolverton Manor Sat 29th &amp; Sun 30th August.<\/p>\n<p>May the Lord\u2019s grace be with you and your loved ones &#8211; The Team and Trustees.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only-begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
