Join with Salvationists of the Wales Division for day 63 of 150 days of prayer.
- ‘God, you are my God. I want to be near to you. I need you to give me life, like a thirsty person in a dry desert. As a person needs water to live, that is how I need you’ (Psalm 63:1, EasyEnglish Bible).
1936
Under the title, ‘Welsh Salvationists Getting Together’, the 18 January War Cry reported on a ‘Welsh Day’ in London:
‘Characteristic Welsh hwyl marked the Welsh Day conducted by Colonel and Mrs T Lewis at East Finchley … on Sunday. More than forty Welsh comrades from various London corps formed themselves for the day into a group of Welsh Singers and a small brass band of fifteen, under Bandmaster Waite, formerly of Trealaw.
‘The programme in the afternoon was presided over by Mr Ivor Richards, organist of St Mary’s church, who took the baton to lead the congregation singing the tune ‘Aberystwyth’.
‘Four souls sought Salvation during the day. Brigadier Effer and Major Emily Taylor assisted the colonel all day.’
The report went on to preview another special Welsh occasion:
‘The fifth Annual Welsh Festival takes place at the Clapton Congress Hall on Saturday, February 29th. New features are to be a London Band led by Major Jakeway, who was born in Aberdare, and a Brigade of London Welsh Singers, led by Deputy Bandmaster Waite, of Wembley (late of Trealaw).’
Prayer
- Thank God for Together 2024 in Newport. It might seem like a distant memory. However, lives were encouraged, people saved and we were fired up to continue our amazing ministry in Wales.
- Pray for the new lieutenants commissioned in Wales but, by now, about to begin ministry in their God appointed and anointed work.
