Hope Pembrokeshire
New Member of Staff - Paul Brewer
You will have received Andrew’s updates on his work among children, families and young people. Isn’t it exciting. What is more, and it is quite extraordinary, Hope Pembrokeshire has taken on another member of
staff as part of the apprenticeship scheme run by St Padarns (the Church in Wales training institute) in conjunction with the Welsh Assembly Government. Paul Brewer has joined the team and will be working
with Andrew, with the centre of imssion in Merlins Bridge and independently. Alongside that he will be studying for a diploma in Christian Mission, which will help equip him to follow God’s call going forward.
Clearly there is an extra expense. We are reasonably confident most of that has been promised but if you would like to start giving to support this work please contact Alan
