On behalf of the Retired Officers Fellowship I would like to thank our friends of Bromley corps who supported us in any way at our coffee morning last week. The Mbooni Sand Dam project captured the imagination of all who participated in the event and the magnificent sum of £1,402 was raised from the stalls and cafe. In addition we were most grateful for a donation of £500 from the corps 'Bridge' network to supplement the £1057 we had already raised. This more than reached our goal and will enable us to send £3,000 to Kenya. I will be happy to provide more details of this project on request. Freda Larsson. Updated Corps Directory The updated Corps Directory is now available. If you would like a hard copy, please put your name on the list in the foyer. These will be free of charge.

Refreshments Our host today is Louise Finch Next week’s host is Vanessa O’Leary Technical Support This Week – am Martin O’Leary pm David Lanceley Next week – am Alex Pringle pm David Lanceley 31st May 2015 Last Sunday was Pentecost Sunday, and it was good for us to be able to gather together in worship, praise and thanks to God for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. 'Why the fear?' was the morning's theme, and this was followed in the evening with a beautiful meeting led by Lyndall Bywater. Lyndall asked the question 'Why the Fire?', and really challenged us with regard to our calling and commitment to the mission of Jesus. This morning Kirsten is inviting us to take a deep breath, before inviting us to go out into our worlds continuing the ministry begun by Jesus, taken up by the disciples, and bequeathed to each of us today. Scripture texts are John 20: 19-23 and Acts 4: 31-35. This evening we are pleased that the Songsters will be leading us in praise and worship. We look forward to an uplifting and encouraging evening of joyful song, as the Songsters prepare for their forthcoming weekend ministry at Norwich Citadel.

As a result, the Congress Office needs to secure the following: 1) Uniformed Salvationists who will be prepared to carry flags. 2) People who will assist in the grand finale featuring the Blood of the Lamb. This is the scene where converts march and then appear in white. In addition, there are still volunteer opportunities to assist with things around the O2. If you would like to volunteer your services or know of anyone who might be interested in doing so, please let Gill know as soon as possible - so your details can be passed to DHQ.
