Missionary Friends

There are few things as wonderful as meeting with missionary friends. There is always a deep chat with people that know what you have been through, the challenges of living in a foreign culture, the pressures of family life balance with ministry demands, and working within an organisation which may have its own ways of doing things.



We had a wonderful day sharing experiences with these wonderful OMS missionaries, the Reid family, and it was a privilege and a pleasure to listen to and learn from them, especially with us planning our own visit this summer.

After Easter, we will be getting our dates down for ministry, working on injections, and keeping in touch with our friends on the field as the time for our visit approaches. We will of course be working with the street kid ministry, but we know that it will be an emotional time as we spend precious hours with people who we love, and we pray that our time there will be an encouragement. It certainly was today for us all. If you are an OMS supporter in Northern Ireland, you may recognise the location, just below where Castle Erin used to stand in Portrush. We had some memorable OMS conferences there.
