Men’s Breakfast – Trusting God, No Matter What

Saturday 27th January 8:45 am – 10:30 am, Mulberry House Hotel, Chelmsford Road, High Ongar CM5 9NL

When confronted with the desperate problems of poverty he witnessed in Africa, Grant Smith did the only thing he knew how – business. Business that would provide jobs and pay people enough so that they would not have to rely on charity to send their kids to school, so that none would be forced to live in a tin shed without water, electricity, sewerage or dignity, fighting off the threat of pneumonia every time it rained.

Come along and hear Grant’s story  “God can be trusted, but he doesn’t half make it hard at times’.

Organised by the Nationwide Christian Trust. £15 per person, Full English Breakfast included. Call to book 01277367124 or email admin@nctuk.org
