Spr6ading the Gospel message and the life of a Christian
The Gospel halls are a base from wh￿h the regular congregation and others who attend the meetings are
encouraged lo spread the Christian Gospel, in V￿rd and deed.
Members of the congregation partlcipate in a Progr￿mme of street preaching and Gospel tracts are provided
free of charge by the Charity to such preachers to be handed out to interested members of the public.
Bibles and an extensive range of other Christian reading material is on display at the Hall, to which visltors are

Gospel tracts and literature available from the Gospp.l Hall

Hall and this fact is advertised on the sign board at the street entrance.

Supporting the Rapid Reli•f Taam charity
Volunteers from our congregation support the work and manage I￿al events for a separate charity, the
Rapid Relief Team. in the Wesl Hertfordshire and Nnrth London area.
Plans for Future Periods
Despite the increased cost of energy and Serv[￿$. the trustees feel that these increased costs are not
significantly impacting on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern.
