Thursday 26 May

9 people attended Bible discussion today. This was not including David Tsai, Josh Smith, Derek, Ann and myself. Roxan from CPC made a fantastic lunch and cake as well. Lisa my wife had also made chocolate cup cakes which also were devoured. A new person attended from invitations and encouragement from Tuesday night Shum.
The discussion was also very productive today with one person expressing their feelings quite strongly about their dislike for a certaing part of the Bible which we were looking at today. Praise God that this actually turned out in a positive manner.
Thanks for your prayers

Thanks for your prayers.

Today 11 people attended Bible discussion. This was not including Ann, Derek and myself

One guy from Tuesday night came which really amazed me. I am glad he came I think he even left me some money on the bench 70 cents.Through the prayers and participation of the May shum team God really worked in this guy to bring him along. We can follow him up hopefully on Tuesday night. Another guy who is now become regular on Thursdays says unfortunately he cannot make Tuesday nights at present because he needs to reserve his sleeping place.

Please continue to pray for the group.

Thanks Michael

Thursday Bible Discussion
Thank you for your prayers.
Today 15 people attended Bible discussion. 3 people came from our invitations on Tuesday night and were there for the first time. Thanks to Rose from CPC who provided lunch for us today. Helpers were Josh Smith, Ann and myself.
Please continue to pray that the group grows in Christ.

Thank God also for the many people that have been coming on the past 2 Tuesday nights and braving the cold. Pray that we will be able to engage them about Jesus and encourage them to meet with us consistently.

Thursday 5th May

Thanks for your prayers everyone.

It was an amazing day today 17 people attended Bible discussion at least 3 from Tuesday night invitations. Hopefully we will see them again next Tuesday night. Also On top of those 3 another 3 or 4 came who had not been before. This is a praise point with about 7 people there who had not attended before. Please pray that God will work in their hearts to bring them back and open their hearts to Him. With this many people please pray for wisdom for myself and how I speak and lead not just the study but other conversations. Fortunately the food streteched, just for this many. However my two helpers Derek and Ann and myself did not get to eat. (That’s fine I am used to that)

Thanks for your prayers I am sure that this could not be accomplished without them. You all play an active role on Thursdays through your prayers so thanks once again.

Michael

Tuesday 3rd May

The start of a new month and SHUM team has brought a great mix of people together. It was quite a busy Tuesday night with people waiting for us when we arrived. The team worked well and everyone did their best to converse with the marginalised.
