We received the good news on Saturday (8th June) that the McGlynn's have landed safely in Sri Lanka, after a long day's travel. For the first few days, they will be relaxing in Colombo before making their way to meet Rev. Partheepan, our resident Minister in the towns of Vavuniya and Mullaitivu. Upon reaching there, Rev McGlynn will conduct a series of meetings and then Sunday Worship, including a baptism that will be happening in the congregation there. Please remember them in prayer. In June, our Minister and his wife will be visiting Sri Lanka, to give a series of lectures there. As some of you may be aware, the denomination has a congregation in Sri Lanka, based in Vavuniya and also in Mullaitheevu. It is led by the Rev Shanmugam Partheepan and is regularly supported by ministers from Scotland.
In lieu of that, we're thankful and glad to have again, Mr Paul Crowe (NE Scotland Faith Mission supintendent) and Mr Kevin Macdonald, divinity student, with us for the first time. 26th May - Mr Paul Crowe 2nd June- Minister 9th June- Mr Paul Crowe 16th June - Mr K.
