‘Great are the works of the Lord; they are pondered by all who delight in them’ (Psalm 111:2), were the words with which Martin Leech, director of the European Missionary Fellowship (EMF) opened one of the sessions at the mission’s October Autumn Conference.
EMF missionaries came from Belarus, Belgium, Czech Republic, Romania, Spain and the UK to stay at Guessens, Hertfordshire – the Mission’s HQ – for a long weekend of Bible ministry, reports, prayer, discussion and fellowship. Public meetings were held at Guessens on the Friday evening at which Matt Hill, the new director of Spanish Christian publishing house Editorial Peregrino and István Salánki from London’s Hungarian Reformed Church spoke of their ministries.

On 18 October two further public meetings were held at Welwyn Evangelical Church during which reports were given by Pál Borzási (Romania), Michael Robinson (Belgium), José de Segovia (Spain) and Jan Hábl (Czech Republic). Bible ministry at both the Friday evening and Saturday meetings was from the Revd Andrew Davies.
