Today we had the visit of the International Secretary for SPEA Commissioner Robert Street, his wife the Zonal Secretary for Women's Ministries Commissioner Janet Street and the Under Secretary Lieut. Colonel Gillian Downer at our Ccrps (church) They were accompanied by our Territorial Leaders Colonels Keith and Beryl Burridge. Colonel Keith Burridge led the meeting and Commissioner Robert Street gave the message.
We first met Commisioners Street at Norwich, England when we visited the Division to conduct meetings about fourteen years ago.
Lieut. Colonel Gillian Downer is an old friend. She first came out to the Philippines when my wife and I were the Territorial Leaders. Later on she was appointed to our Command as the General Secretary and when the Command was elevated to be a Territory, she was promoted to be Lieut. Colonel. She was a soldier of William Booth Corps.
Later on in the year we shall be welcoming her as our new Territorial Commander.
They are here for a conference to be held at our Retreat Centre this week.More visitors will be joining them later.
It is always a joy to welcome visitors to the Corps.
