So I went to hear a presentation by Peter Milsom concerning the work of UFM for my second seminar. Again, very interesting.
About 400 gathered I guess for the evening meeting. featured reference to Naomi Clark, recently married and due to be working in The Philippines with her Filipino husband plus Fiona, Andrzej from Poland, Helen Cook soon to retire from the radio work and Andrew Murfitt from Brazil.
The preacher was Steven Curry from Northern Ireland - familiar to many of us from the Carey Conference. He took us appropriately to Luke 11 and the Lord's words on prayer, especially the parable of the persistent friend. Typically, with a thorough well researched and supported but constantly applied sermon he made five points. These concerned
1. The motive we should be driven by - For the glory of God and out of love for others
2. The patience we must display
3. The boldness we must possess - we should be shameless in our praying
4. The perseverance we must show - the asking, seeking, knocking
5. The willingness we must understand - the example of kindness in fathers
