CHRISTMAS/PARTNER A friend and mentor for the last twenty five plus years, Pastor Les Ball of All Nations (Baptist) Church in London (ret.) just shared the following:
‘Last Christmas Eve, Roland Parsons stood outside Victoria station and read aloud from the gospel of Luke the story of the birth of Christ. He had done this every Christmas Eve for over 20 years without interference. But last year a police man told Roland he was not allowed to and must show his passport to continue reading.

‘Religious liberty is under pressure in the UK. Us Christians need to stand and pray and not be afraid to shine publicly the light of Jesus.
‘Pray that Roland will be able to read the Bible publicly today, Christmas Eve when he goes back to Victoria station. Could perhaps some of us just go somewhere and read the story … out loud ???’
And, may I add, true Christians are under pressure in large parts of the world, not only the U.K. Let’s celebrate this Christmas prayerfully in order to get ready and get back. Back to the streets with the Gospel.
Merry Christmas from a snowy Norway, y’all.
