New commitments

KILBURN Jason Reid and Dennis Ajufo were welcomed as adherents and Linda and Stuart McTurk were enrolled as soldiers. Jason was introduced to the corps by Dennis, so it was lovely to see them make this commitment together. Linda and Stuart said that signing the Soldier’s Covenant was them coming back to God. In January Betty Hammond renewed her Soldier’s Covenant 60 years after first signing the Articles of War – and she is still going strong! She is pictured with corps officer Lieutenant Jen Barker. – JB

FALMOUTH TEMPLE Stephen Willoughby was welcomed as an adherent by corps officer Captain Andrew Hammond. Four years ago, Stephen started to attend the community café and progressed to volunteering, serving across a range of ministries. Thereafter Stephen started to attend meetings. He testified to his love for Jesus and thanked the corps folk for their warm welcome. He is pictured with Captains Andrew and Nicola Hammond. – AH SALISBURY Jackie and John Page have attended the corps for some time with their daughter, Jess, and felt led to confirm their commitment by becoming adherents.
