"I loved mission tall ships, every part of it. Meeting people from Texas, who had given up their time and holidays to come over and help us (at their own expense), was very humbling and a great encouragement. They became family straight away and we worked well together.
One of the things that stood out for me was morning devotions together, which included worship, a word from the bible, and prayer. Everyone was so open and passionate about the Lord.
The whole event plus the weeks leading up to it had been soaked in prayer, God honoured that prayer and we had an amazing time. People were open to chatting and receiving leaflets, and many commented on the friendliness and the welcome they received. At the least it may make them think differently about the church. Those out and about got to speak to many people about Jesus and got some very good responses.
Tall Ships has gone now but our mission is still the same, to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with others. I think this is what God was teaching me, because it’s not something I do easily. That, and the importance and power of prayer.
It was very tiring but well worth it, it was a real blessing from beginning to end. Thankyou to the team that organised it, for their commitment, passion and enthusiasm, it was inspiring. "
