We had a good weekend away in our motorhome recently, meeting with other members of the Good News Vanners Club. These gatherings are held every few weeks, in different venues around our area, and it is a great time of fellowship for us all. Coming as we do from various churches, we don\u2019t get a chance to meet with these folk anywhere else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have great times of singing the good old favourite hymns which we grew up with (as you might guess, we are all in the older age bracket!), and share testimonies of what the Lord has done for us, both recently, and in times past. In this way we can encourage each other and build each other up as well as enjoy each other\u2019s company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
