Greetings and blessings from a very snowy Lincoln,


It has been a very good trip so far with visits to New Life Church, TCM and St. George's Church, all within the city. Tonight we will visit a group of churches in Middle Rasen. Many of you will remember the "Pedaling Vicar", David Post, who has raised money for us over the years. He has put together this evening's event.

 

Things are still very difficult financially, but we do have one more week until I return to Baghdad. We need a further $35,000. Please pray that we find it.

 

Life in Baghdad has been so terrible and we have lost a significant number of our congregation - due to recent killings and many have emigrated.

 

We got by last month because I was able to take the money awarded to me from the Civil Courage Prize. Please pray that we can also provide over the Christmas season, as we celebrate the birth of our Messiah.


Honouring the Peacemakers

Last week it was a huge blessing to be able to award Wijdan Salim, Iraqi Minister for Human Rights with our annual peace prize. Minister Salim was honoured in the Palace of Westminster and was handed the award by Lord Cary.

We need you, and we thank you for all your support, prayer and help.

With love and blessings,
