Newsletter – April 2022
Lionel Wallace DL has been High Sheriff of Hertfordshire for the past year. His first enterprise, as a child, was selling sweets and snacks to his 11 siblings. Now he’s an aeronautical engineer, and has been involved in youth work and church leadership for over 40 years. Lionel is a great example of a Gospel Entrepreneur – watch the short video clip above to hear about a vital lesson he learned. Then listen to my full interview with him when it comes out next week as a UCB podcast.
The lesson Lionel learned is relevant for all of us in these troubled times. Isaiah summed up what God says to us when we step out in faith: ‘Don’t panic. I’m with you. There’s no need to fear for I’m your God. I’ll give you strength. I’ll help you. I’ll hold you steady, keep a firm grip on you’ (Isaiah 41:10. The Message).
Thanks so much for your prayers and support – do pass this news update on to anyone who might be interested.
