Greetings Black Country!

COMMEMORATION OF THE BICENTENARY OF THE ABOLITION OF THE SLAVE TRADE ACT - 25th March @ Bethel Convention Centre

Hope you’re enjoying the season of goodwill.

I write to give you an update on the Commemoration and would appreciate if you would share the info in your next Network News. 

I am pleased to inform you that the tickets are now available at a cost of £5 per ticket.  The Planning Group decided, having weighed up the various options, that the best way of both funding and managing the event effectively, was to make it a £5 per-seat (advanced purchase only) ticketed event.  There are 7 ticket outlets in total, two of which are in the Black Country - Wesley Owen (Walsall) and CLC (Wolverhampton).  A full list of outlets is attached. 

Tickets are available at all 7 outlets right now and no booking fee will be added.  It would be really good to have some brothers and sisters from your Network to attend and I shall keep you posted with further updates.  The flyer has been slightly delayed, but will be out soon too.

May you have a peaceful Christmas and a prosperous New Year!

God Bless,

David King
