George Verwer

Founder of Operation Mobilisation (OM) speaking at an event in Motherwell. The focus was on the church in Africa.

It must be 25 years since we last heard him speak. Still wearing his global jacket. As engaging as ever, no notes, very challenging. He is nearly 78.

He left us with seven words :-
Potential
Grace
Action
Urgency
Suffering
Messiology - George's own word. God can work in messy situations.
Perseverance
