One-to-One evangelism @ Speakers Corner. Hyde Park. London.

“God had only one Son and he made that Son a missionary.” -David Livingstone

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.

After the madness of last Sunday, my body armour has arrived and I am ready to go again this week! Many of you know that Hatun Tash was viscously attached by a man with a knife and wounded in her head and arm, she seems to be ok and I expect she will be there as well!
I saw the man attacking her, I thought he was punching her and was unaware of his weapon, as you can see from the photos I was first in line to chase him off (not brave just stupid). A reminder that we never know what a ”what a day may bring.’

Pray for Hatun and her safety and add me to the list as we seek to share Good News with whoever we encounter.
