Today @ Speakers Corner

When the sun shines the people come out to the park, the regulars, curious tourists and those who are just passing through as they walk down to the Serpentine.
Lots of good conversations, but the highlight of the day was, Soufi (photos 8&9). Yesterday, I picked up some gospels of Luke in Farsi (Farsi is the native name (endonym) for the Persian language) and prayed this morning that I would be able to give one to an Iranian in the park.
At the corner there was no Iranian who wanted to chat, but God moves in mysterious ways! As I was heading back to the car to go home, I noticed a young man all by himself with a carpet and books, at first, I thought he was praying but instead he was binding some books, putting leather covers on a book he had written. Soufi was super-friendly, and we had a chat about many things but (as you might expect) ended up at Jesus, his claims and his identity. Please pray for Soufi that he will read the gospel and that God will speak clearly to him.

Speakers Corner in London’s Hyde Park is the oldest free speech platform in the world. People won the right to speak in mass protests in the 1860s and early 1870s. Some people believe the tradition is connected to the right of the condemned to a last speech before being hung at the Tyburn gallows, a practice that stopped at the end of the 18th century. Every Sunday people from all sorts of convictions come to Hyde Park in the afternoon to spread their message or to have fun.

Good News Camp 2026 Video

Good News Camp 2026 Video /strong>
Venue: Lockerley Water Farm, Hampshire SO51 0LW

What is it?
‘Good News’ Camps are packed with interest and provide excellent value for money. Campers are given the opportunity to explore new places, meet new friends, and take part in exciting activities! Organised Camp activities include onsite sports and art and craft sessions, plus trips into the New Forest, a jaunt to the beach and a splash in a nearby swimming pool. During ‘free time’ campers can just ‘chill out’ or use the onsite facilities e.g. snooker, table-tennis, volleyball, badminton, football and a variety of board games.

At the beginning of the week all campers are placed into teams and healthy competition is encouraged throughout the week. Teams will compete with each other in a whole range of fun based activities, scoring points and trying to make sure they are the team who will win the team prize at the end of the week!

Note: These Camps are Christian based. That means that each day all campers take part in various forms of Bible study and prayer. The main learning time takes place in an action packed, fast paced programme called ‘T.G.S.’ (The God Slot). This event includes singing, quizzes, Bible readings, competitions, prayers, fun spots, video stories and a short talk.

No Speakers Corner today!

No Speakers Corner today, a reoccurrence of a knee injury means limited walking & standing until it heals, hoping to be back next week.
Do pray for the Christians who will be at the Corner, that God will lead them to the right people to speak to, wisdom in answering & debating, and protection form those who would seek to cause harm.
