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.

‘BodyBuilders’ Youth Events
‘BodyBuilders’ Youth Event (games, world focus, talk & tuck shop) & ‘BodyBuilders’ Extra (Pizza & Bible Study for the oldies).
The noise levels are always high as young (8yr olds) & old (15yr olds) complete in a variety of games and as always, they listened so well to the talk! A real privilege to speak into their lives the things of Christ!
Thanks to the BB team; Beth on ‘World Focus’ and Adam & Penny on ice-breakers and the other leaders who support, get involved and make things happen! All-in-all a jolly good evening!

Today @ Speakers Corner
Sunshine in the park equals people and lots of them!
Long afternoon/evening with conversations taking place in the dark except for a few camera lights and the one lamppost (you would think they could afford more than one!)
Two highlights, #1: a Moslem man called Ali, after a good chat asked that we might pray, “Jesus would save me from himself!” There in the business of the park it was good to pray with him. Please continue to pray the Lord will make himself known to this open-minded man.
#2: was with another Moslem man (sorry, I could not pronounce his name, never mind spell it!), in London but flying back to Saudi tomorrow. Lots of genuine dialogue and he said he would watch some of my sermons on YouTube, please pray he finds the right ones.
