Many congratulations to two newly-married couples in the 24-7 community. Firstly to Phil Evans and Anna Jones who were married on the 13th August . After a lovely honeymoon in Thailand Mr and Mrs Evans have now settled into married life in Guildford, UK where 24-7 was launched back in 2000.  Anna is a teacher who has been involved in 24-7 since the beginning - whether in Guildford, Cambridge or on mission teams. Phil of course is Mr Mission - especially building our links into Belgrade and also helping initiate many of the mission teams that have been sent out from the UK over the last 5 years. Phil's heart for mission is infectious.

Rumours abound about the Evans' romance - apparently Anna first asked Phil out over a bowl of French Onion soup in Cambridge (we had thought Phil's frequent visits to Cambridge were through a deep burden to re-dig the wells of student mission - but, hey!). In February Phil carefully arranged a Valentine's weekend break in Sevilla with the conspiratorial support of Jonah and Heather Bailey and Jim Clarke in the 24-7 community there. He proposed and Anna said ' give me three good reasons why I should say yes!!'. You can ask them what the reasons were but we are delighted that Phil and Anna Evans are both involved in 24-7 - they are both wonderful individuals and a great couple.

Congratulations Phil and Anna!

 

CONGRATULATIONS TO ADAM COX AND JULI CATO WHO GET MARRIED TODAY AT THE KANSAS CITY  BOILER ROOM, USA! Adam heads up the Boiler Room community in Kansas City and Juli, originally from Pretoria, South Africa is developing a new 24-7 justice initiative focussed on AIDS orphans. Miraculously, in answer to much prayer, Juli's essential paperwork arrived at 5pm yesterday. Jus in the nick of time for their big day today. "It's so exciting to be caught up in God's story," writes Adam, one of the founders of the Transit course. "OK, let's go get married!"
