Our conference last Saturday was such a blessing: inspirational and challenging! Bishop James Newcome’s presentation was wide-ranging, deep and comprehensive. We were delighted to welcome deacons from other countries, especially those who got up at 3am to be part of our zoom.
Bishop James had lost his voice the previous day, which is why he sounds a bit husky. Huge thanks to him for battling through.
