Evangelism @ Speakers Corner –
One-to-One evangelism @ Speakers Corner. Hyde Park. London.
“Think and let think.” ― John Wesley
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 spead their message or to have fun.

The day offers a wide variety of events ranging from livestock classes, in which cattle, sheep, pigs and goats from across the region compete for a coveted first prize, to an extensive display of beautifully restored and maintained vintage machinery.
Traditional countryside pastimes are showcased during the falconry displays and the parade of hounds, beagles and bloodhounds while horses of all shapes and sizes are shown in the heavy horse, in-hand, side saddle, carriage driving and jumping classes. From donkey, dog and duck shows to racing sheep and ferrets there is never a dull moment at the Alresford Show!
