‘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.
‘You’re not usually interested’
At Benllech in Anglesey a packed all-day programme of games, face painting, crafts, puppet academy, dads’ penalty shoot out, children’s football, tug-of-war and holiday special has led to a great warmth and response from parents. ‘You are not usually interested in that kind of stuff’ was the response of a family member to a man who asked for a DVD in response to a talk at one evening event.
