In a heartening display of unity and fellowship, mid-Wales witnessed a remarkable gathering on Sabbath, 20 April, as all churches within the region joined hands for a day of profound spiritual enrichment and deep fellowship at Telford.

As the day progressed, a consultation on gift aid unfolded, underscoring the collective commitment of the attendees to bolstering the Welsh Mission's capital endeavours. The British Union Conference (BUC) spearheaded discussions on maximising the impact of gift aid, with presentations led by leaders from the BUC, including Jacques Venter (Executive Secretary), Aftab Barki (Associate Treasurer), and Wederly Aguiar (Treasurer). The active participation of the attendees in these deliberations highlighted their understanding of the pivotal role of effective communication in harnessing the potential of gift aid to advance the Mission's noble cause.
