Shipping and general weather forecasts. followed by a detailed forecast for South-East England
by Shaun Herron, Editor of the British Weekly.
The older Free Churches of this country - Baptist, Congregationalist, and Presbyterian-hold annual assemblies that are usually referred to as the May Meetings. These assemblies are inspirational and also afford opportunities for a denomination to pass resolutions on matters of public interest. In this talk Shaun Herron examines the function of these May Meetings in the life of the older Free Churches, and reports on the meetings held this year.
