Evangelism at Speakers Corner. Hyde Park. London.

“Many can argue – not many converse.” Amos Bronson Alcott

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.

Great to hear that Good News Camp had helped Jay come to faith and thrilled to see her getting baptised!

It was good to be joined by a few friends in the park today, Joe Kirby (YouTube: ‘Off The Kirb’ Ministries), Pete Barker and a few others from last week’s F.E.W. conference!

Wet and miserable is an understatement, the park was deserted, the Cafés were all closed, and speakers’ corner was the emptiest I have ever seen it!

We all gathered by Speakers Corner Café where we found limited shelter from the elements. The weather may disappoint but Speakers Corner always comes up trumps.
lots of conversations, best of the day was two Armenian visitors (Father and Teenage daughter), lots of genuine searching questions and both took gospels.

Joe, Johnny & Rob in action.

A few friends in the park today, it will be good to see Joe Kirby (YouTube: ‘Off The Kirb’ Ministries) and a few others from last weeks F.E.W. conference!
