In Depth:  Alan Pibworth

‘He made the stars to shine, He made the rolling sea, He made the mountains high and He made me’ has been sung this summer by thousands of children who have never heard about the death and resurrection of Jesus and whose families never attend a church.

United Beach Missions teams have been sharing the good news of Jesus for a total of 60 weeks at beach resorts in England, Wales, Ireland, as well as in Spain and Portugal. With members as young as 15 but with some in their sixties and older, they have been motivated by a love for the Lord, a love for each other and a love for the lost.

On Saturday, March 1, over 90 people came to The Net, a training day in evangelism and evangelistic preaching, at Enfield Evangelical Free Church, organised by United Beach Missions and Roger Carswell and sponsored by 10ofthose.com .

Johnny Prime, pastor of the church, set the scene for the day as he showed from Luke 5 that the Lord Jesus is the loving people-catcher who catches sinful people for the purpose of catching others. As we preach the Word of God we throw out the net to others even when conditions may not look ideal.
