Ian Andrews’ talks…

Ian Andrews was the Saturday speaker at our recent C4H ‘gathering’. Someone had the foresight to make a recording on their phone which means we can share the recordings of Ian’s talk and his Q&A session. These can be found on the team page of the website (password is HOTS4075). You will also find a number of other helpful resources on the team page.

C4H Healing Café Culture and Values…

Paul Skelton has provided a short video which outlines C4H’s culture for a Healing Café. It can be found here, with seven short videos which remind us of some of C4H’s values for ministry in a Healing Café setting. All the videos can be found here.

Prayer & Thanksgiving…

• Testimonies of some of the healings at the Bath and Melksham Healing Cafés can be found here.
• Thank you, Jesus, for raising up operational support for Paul as he leads C4H. Please pray that the right people will be identified for the right tasks. Please pray as Paul seeks to delegate some of the tasks associated with running C4H and its activities. In particular we are seeking someone with skills as a videographer who will act as curator for CH4’s testimonies.
• We’ve decided not to affiliate with HREW (Healing Rooms England and Wales), though we can learn from them and from the way they operate. Although our cafés could be accommodated by the HREW model, this would be too restrictive for other aspects of C4H. Therefore, we are going to establish C4H as a CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) for all our activities. Paul will be working with John and Sharon Firth to do this. John will be helping to set up the CIO and Sharon will be working on our policies. In the meantime there is an immediate need for C4H to obtain some public liability insurance for the C4H street work. Undertaking this necessary work will incur some expenses so please also give this matter some prayerful attention.
• Please pray for those leading our various C4H activities:
  • Dawn Benda (Bath Healing Café)
  • Susan Kyle (Food Hygiene & Safety Advisor)
  • Andy Ladhams (HOTS Bath)
  • Nancy Millard (Melksham Healing Café)
• Interest is still being shown in the possibility of starting healing cafés in additional locations in and around Bath. Planning is underway to get a Shaftesbury Healing Café up and running (details of the training day are provided, above) and we are starting to look into opening one in Chippenham, possibly early in 2026.
