If you do away with the yoke of oppression, with the pointing finger and malicious talk, and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday. The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.

Christian-Muslim Relations, Tottenham UK

Today we got some great news. After more than a year of working to build bridges with the local Muslim community, one of the local families who would not allow their children to attend our clubs, has suddenly decided to start sending their middle son to hang out with us on Mondays. !!! Wow! It is an answer to prayer not only because we get to hang out with this young man, but because it also means that we are beginning to earn the trust of even some of the more traditional Muslims in our community.

Thanks to Tim for this update - see the SA Tottenham blog for more information on what they've been up to.
