Sunday 28th - Magherafelt Independent Methodist
It is extremely unusual for Solid Ground to attempt 2 bookings on the one evening, but on this occasion it was a case of singing at the gospel service in Magherafelt and then on to the last evening of the gospel campaign organised by the church in Knockloughrim Orange Hall. Pastor Nobel Maxwell was the speaker at both services and it was encouraging to hear of at least 3 souls being saved during the two week mission in the hall. It was also good to meet up with some friends from Bournemouth, England who were on holiday in Northern Ireland and had travelled to the evening service to meet up with Solid Ground. Next engagement for Solid Ground - Sunday 12th May in Portrush Baptist Church at 7pm,
Wednesday 23rd - Ballymena Elim Church
Thanks to Helen Cameron and her team of helpers the Ladies Fellowship and their husbands could say that they had 'fared sumptuously' and really enjoyed the meal provided at their annual dinner. Solid Ground sang quite a number of pieces during a 45 minute slot before Pastor Sydney Kerr brought the excellent evening to a close with a short epilogue. Next engagement for Solid Ground - Sunday 28th in Magherafelt Independent Methodist at 7pm and afterwards at their Gospel Mission at 8.15pm
Sunday 21st - Iron Hall Assembly, Belfast
According to our dear brother who was leading the meeting at Iron Hall, Sunday was officially the first day of spring as two bees had been noted in his garden in the afternoon. It was a beautiful evening in Belfast and the speaker at the evening service was the Assembly's full-time elder - Mr Hugh Martin. Solid Ground sang 4 pieces during a 15 minute slot.
