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.

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!
