Farewell 

Please join us in thanking God for mission partners and associates who are returning to the UK permanently. They include Brian and Faye Carson, and Mark and Rachel Meynell. We wish smile co-ordinator Jeremy Wainania all the best in his studies and new role in his church. 

Home visits 

On mission education are David and Angie Ball with Timothy and Jonathan and Philip and Fiona Richardson with Bethany. 

Welcome 

London office newcomers are Thelma Boase, John Martin and Chris Jennings (above) who takes over the reins from Jez Wainaina as the new smile co-ordinator. New to the Belfast office are Valerie Ellis and Darren Todd. 

Congratulations! 

Mission partners Raymond and Rebekah Brown were delighted with the arrival of Noah Jonathon on the 4th June. “We are thankful to God for his sovereignty and blessing in bringing this new life into being”. He was born in Durban where the couple are establishing a church plant. 

Annual Members Meeting Update 

Since the AMM we have heard of the death of Mr G Stanley Hall, one of our Honorary Vice Presidents since 1979, who passed away on 17 May aged 96. At the AMM we thanked Ann Rayner for 20 years co-ordinating the Former Missionaries Fellowship. Ann is retiring from this position and looking for any former missionaries of the Society to take on this important volunteer role. If you are interested please phone Ann on 01732 356 797. Please pray for the continuation of the Fellowship. 

Ring the Changes 

Dress rings, earrings and brooches have helped make a real difference thanks to supporters who auctioned them on behalf of Crosslinks. One supporter said: “I was pleased to think this had raised some funds for Crosslinks.” If you have auction items contact Wallington Missionary Auctions on 020 8647 8437. 

Taxi! 

Thank you to one supporter who sent £30 from her collection box. She collected gifts she had been given for helping friends who needed lifts. If you would like a collection box please call Lynda on 020 8691 6111. 

A gift in your will 

If you are thinking of changing your will to include a gift to Crosslinks, please contact Karen on 020 8691 6111 for some literature.
