Seniors hear about work in Moldova at Convention Rally. The Convention’s Senior Rally, on the Saturday afternoon in Ballygawley Presbyterian Church, was led by Mr Alan Blair, Armagh & South Tyrone Union Treasurer.
The Revd Maurice Laverty and Ruth Agnew led the music with the first hymn being, “Praise Him, Praise Him, Jesus our Blessed Redeemer”.
There were around 40-50 present and it was organised by our Local Union Senior Convenor, Mrs Sandra Condy, Clonaneese. The Revd Ian Fleck opened the meeting in prayer and Mrs Pauline Condy, Clonaneese JCE leader, read Matthew 25: 31-40. Brain and Ruth Agnew sang a couple of pieces including, “Jesus keep me near the Cross” and “Wonderful Saviour”.
The Revd Nick Cooper spoke about the work in Moldova stressing the words from Mark 9:23 “Everything is possible to him that believes”.
In Budai there was a family whose house burnt down and 10000 Euros were raised and sent out to rebuild the house. On the first visit out the team gave members of the Church only gifts that had been sent. The locals wondered why they did not get anything so the second time the team visited they were all given bed linens. This was a village they had not planned on visiting but the door was closed to the village they were preparing to go to. God leads in ways we cannot understand but following His leading is something very special. Pauline Condy & Brian Agnew.
