James Seddon’s challenging hymn ‘Go Forth and Tell’ was the title for The Open-Air Mission’s training day held on 14 April in Bromsgrove.
160 people interested in open-air evangelism attended from different parts of the country. After the hymn, which set the tone for the day, Mike Mellor tackled the subject ‘How do we keep going?’ We were exhorted to persevere in our service for the Lord. What motivated the apostle Paul in his gospel endeavours should also motivate us to continue.
Two rounds of seminars took place, including: ‘Don’t be a boring preacher!’; ‘Engaging with Atheists’; ‘Teamwork works!’; ‘Sharing your faith with a Muslim’; and ‘Matters legal and practical’ by the Christian Institute.
