Eric
McCaughren requests
prayer for a two-hour
teaching session regarding Biblical Elders being held on
31st March. This has
been requested by the elders of the six English-speaking
assemblies in
Kitwe,
all mature, experienced, well educated and capable men.
Pray for grace,
wisdom and courage to expound biblical teaching, sometimes
obscured by ‘the traditions of men’.

Ken and
Christine Cowell report that almost 600 people attended their gospel concert

the following day, the ladies’ singing group performed at a
large shopping centre in the town. Further copies of
Power for Living were
distributed to those listening, and some good conversations
took place. Please
pray
for fruit from these outreaches.

hope to use the work of Christian artist

pray for this event.
SPAIN
 Ken
and Alison Barrett
are expecting a GLO team to join them on
30th
March, for a week of
gospel outreach. The City Council have refused them
permission to do any open-air preaching in the city centre,
as the officially approved Easter processions will be taking
place there. However, many outreach activities are planned
away from the centre, and it is hoped that the team will
still be able to give out tracts on the main streets.
