Encouraging Quotes:
"Thank you for the Covenant Reformed News it is most helpful
and is always gratefully received as an oasis in the desert." -
England
"Just a note to say thank you for the News, etc., by e-mail.
Also when you send out advance notice of radio interviews I try to
make a point of listening ... [The website bookstore] is impressive,
clean and tidy." - N. Ireland
"This is a note to express my gratitude for mailing to me regularly
copies of the Covenant Reformed News. The truths expressed by
yourself and others of the Reformed faith are as showers of blessing
in a land where truths based on the word of God seem to be scarce
today. I find your literature inspirational and enlightening. Thank
you, may the Lord bless you in all your labours." - N. Ireland
"Thank you for sending me your News every month. It has been a
real help and encouragement." - England
"Thank you for your faithfulness in sending me your various
publications which are greatly appreciated. Thank you too and I know
that I speak on behalf of many thousands of people in Ulster, for the
stand you have taken in the past regarding Mel Gibson’s film. Your
arguments are unanswerable, and any defence of the film is childish.
It is thought a very good missionary enterprise by the Roman Catholic
church—and absolutely disgusting that so many ‘evangelicals’
especially Elim are being bussed to these propaganda exercises. Surely
they should know that no production could ever touch the surface of
the sufferings of Christ ..." - N. Ireland
"It’s great to see so many people profiting from the work that you do
in your little fellowship in Ballymena. Whenever I lend a tape you
have provided to someone in our fellowship I inevitably lose it! That
is truly a cause for celebration." - England
