September's PPSC meeting took place on Tuesday evening at Emmanuel Gospel Church, Manorbier. Prayers were said for situations in Burma, Nigeria and Pakistan. There were slideshow reminders of particular Christians who are 'standing strong through the storm' and an inspiring televised interview with Bishop Benjamin Kwashi of Jos, Nigeria. He lost all his possessions in an attack that, thankfully and unexpectedly, spared his life.

This month's donations, amounting to £215, will be sent to him via the Anglican administration. Bethel Baptist Church, Pembroke Dock, is the venue for the October meeting. See the updates on the Hesed website, http://www.hesedcf.co.uk">www.hesedcf.co.uk
