Walter & Mary Burrell

Every spring we have been pleased to welcome back to our church our very dear friends, Walter & Mary Burrell, from the Seamen's Christian Friend Society.

During their annual visits they have shared with us something of their valuable outreach ministry amongst the sailors they meet from every corner of the globe in Cork, Republic of Ireland.

They really have been a great inspiration to us & have never missed the opportunity to encourage us to share our living faith with others.

Sadly in 2008 they were unable to join with us owing to Mary being very unwell.

We met together on the very evening set apart for their visit to pray for them both and the ongoing ministry in Cork.

Sadly Mary has now had to enter a Nursing Home in Cork owing to very poor health. Walter was due to visit us in April, 2009, but due to his own poor health was unable to make the visit to the UK.

We really have missed their annual visits to us.

This photo gallery features the photographs taken during their 2007 visit to us.

Please join with us in praying for this wonderful couple who have now entered a very difficult time in their lives.

Walter's enthusiasm for the spread of the Gospel is truly infectious! Walter & friend. Walter always engages his audience!
Mary & Tim in deep conversation. Karen, Tim, Mary & Walter. What an amazing couple they are - greatly used by God in the lives of many. Please pray for them both - particularly Mary who is very unwell.
