PRAISE GATHERING VIRTUAL CHOIR

Here at Flame, we are very supportive of Praise Gathering in Scotland – an amazing ensemble of church folk drawn from many churches, under the musical direction of good friend and colleague IAN WATSON.

Their latest project in ‘lockdown’ is a virtual choir rendering of ‘It is Well with my Soul’ – given a Celtic feel. Click on the image below to watch.

Look closely…and you might also spot someone else you know.

Luis Palau: 1934 - 2021
After a three-year battle with stage IV lung cancer, evangelist Luis Palau died on 11 March at his home in Portland, Oregon. He was 86 years old.

Dave has contributed his memories and condolences below to the memorial web site here

"I had the rare privilege of working with Luis for over 20 years, from the preparatory meetings for Eurofest in the 70s, to sharing in his crusades across the Uk, including Mission to London at QPR, Spring Harvest and in the States. A remarkable, gifted evangelist...full of enthusiasm with passionate expression of faith. Many memories, but in all of the changing scenes of ministry, Luis was faithful and consistent in being obedient to his calling, and encouraging others to do the same. My heart goes out to Pat, Keith, Kevin and Andrew as they take on the ministry baton of a wonderful man who walked closely with the Lord and kept in step with the people".
