You can now share in the blessings of our recent consultation in Egypt, by going to the web page at https://loimission.net/2019-christian-witness/. There is a gallery of pictures, and by clicking on the names of speakers in the programme you can download PDFs of their talks. We shall add more as they come in, so check back in a few weeks if the paper you want to read is not yet available. Note that we deliberately did not produce a handbook or list of participants this year. Neither, sadly, have we any recipes to share from the excellent catering at the Logos Centre!
