Fancy a trip to Freetown? No passport? No packing?
At Your Service - Manx Radio
Monday, 27 May 2024 - 30 minutes
Earlier this year, Angela Southern, a member of Ballagarey Methodist Church, was selected to represent not just the Isle of Man, but the whole of the British Isles, at the All Africa Conference of Churches - an ecumencial body which accounts for over 200 million Christians across the African Continent.
Our local Christian Aid Rep Louise Whitelegg chose to go with Angela (at her own expense) to learn more about the host country - Sierra Leone - and ten days ago Angela and Louise set off for captial city Freetown, for Angela to explore the Conference, and Louise to explore the Methodist churches that tell the story of past slavery struggles and a deep and lively faith that flourishes today.
On this programme we share the audio diary Louise has been sending day-by-day, as well as meeting one of the key conference leaders - and there's some great local music too - from our own Lon Vane Ladies Choir conducted by Christine Bregazzi.
Plus notice board news - specially those upcoming TT Teas!!
