Visit of Pakistani Bishop to Bradford

Bishop Rev Muno Rumal Shah, now retired but formerly Bishop of Peshawar in Pakistan, visited Bradford a couple of months ago. Bishop Shah has blessed and encouraged the work within Asian Christian ministry and also appreciates the work within the interfaith community. He now works at Central Office in Lahore, Pakistan.

St Andrew’s Methodist Church has strong links with an Asian Christian community in the village of Shanti Nagar in Pakistan, which used to be our home village. We now attend regularly at St Andrew’s.

We also wanted to let you know about our Asian worship, which happens on the second Saturday of every month. We would be really glad if anybody would like to join us. For more details, you could contact us via St Andrew’s.

Also, we have bibles available in Urdu and Hindi and if anybody requires these would you let us know please. Please let us know if anybody needs any prayers; we would be more than happy to keep them in our prayers.

Saleem and Joyce D, St Andrew’s

Protect those who love you; because of you they are truly happy ...
