Re: Onward Christian Soldiers.
I do indeed. I worked with a Consultant who would devote part of his holidays to going back to India to help run the missionary hospital there.....this man is white and was raised in Liverpool and is a committed Methodist. He has encouraged members of the nursing staff to go with him each year and they take items of equipment that is outdated but still working.....this is the mark of a true Christian....... OK, he might sing a few hymns (badly) while he is operating........and Dr Rowan Williams wants to apologise for this.
