News In Brief
Sunday 26th February
Please put Sunday 26th February in your diary when there will be a Special Celebration Service for Emily Chalke ( time to be advised).
Emily has been working with the Baptist Missionary Society on 'Nightlight' a jewellery company set up in Bangkok to employ women from the sex industry, helping to rehabilitate them, giving a worthwhile paid job, helping them to regain their dignity and self respect. Emily is back in the UK before going out to Central Asia so this is your opportunity to hear about the work she has been doing.
