Greeting from the Divisional Commander
March of Witness (Sun 23 June)
Friends, as we approach our Congress I pray that God will meet your need during our weekend together: may He encourage those who need to be encouraged; inspire those who need to be inspired; challenge those who need to be challenged and revive those who need to be fired-up again by a fresh outpouring of His Holy Spirit.
Co-ordinators: Lieut. Philip Cole (Londonderry) & S/L Keith Pyper (Belfast Temple). The march will assemble in Lower Garfield Street at 2.10pm, departing at 2.30pm. Here is the order the march:
I encourage you to come ready to receive all that God has in store for you and then let us see what He can do in the days that lie ahead with His newly energised and empowered Army in Ireland. God bless, Elwyn Harries, Major
