Picnic, prayer and praise in Pembroke

700 gathered despite the weather to sing praise to Jesus

Far from dampening everyone’s enthusiasm the spasmodic outbreaks of rain only seemed to fan the flames at the latest ‘Picnic Prayer and Praise’ that was held recently in Pembroke Castle.

‘This is turning into an eagerly anticipated event’ said organiser Pastor Rob James. ‘We had to cancel last year’s gathering because it coincided with the death of the Queen, but to our delight Christians gathered from all over Pembrokeshire to celebrate our unity and to pray and praise the Lord for all He does for us, not least for overruling the weather so that we can witness for Him in this historic place’. 

Worship was led by representatives from several local churches as well as a group from the Korean London Central Church, but it would not have been an authentic ‘Picnic Prayer and Praise’ without the presence of ‘Sound of Wales’.
