Is There Anything Paul Can’t Find?

Operation Joy is so much more than a reliable presence in our town and city centres…

One day as Paul was giving out some food bags in Bolton Town Centre a lady recognised him. T used to meet Paul as she begged in Manchester. In fact T was one of the earliest contacts he made after moving from London over 11 years ago. Now living a relatively stable life she remembered that Paul had helped her obtain a copy of her birth certificate and further to this had helped to find out where T's father was buried. Something that T had never been informed of. On the day in question Paul was with his wife, Angie, and they said they would be praying for her. It turned out that T needed a fresh copy of her birth certificate, so Paul took a phone number so that contact can be maintained. One feature of Operation Joy is keeping a record of birthdays so Paul had all the necessary information to hand.

Please pray with us and give thanks for work of Operation Joy.
