  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

:wave: Hi,

I didn't see this part of the forum until now but I figured I'd introduce myself anyway so's you guys know what I am :eek: !

I'm from a land called Wales which, if you don't know, is part of the United Kingdom (imagine the UK map and Wales is the lump that reaches out to Ireland). Wales is not in England (no offense to the English, I am a Yorkshireman by birth and blood), it has its own language and cultural identity, but that's about it. Our national game (rugby) is in dire straits and it rains a lot.

My village is called Lower Cwmtwrch, and it is near Swansea in South Wales. I go to a pentecostal church in a small town called Ystradgynlais where I'm training to be an elder (long time to go yet I suspect). The name of the fellowship to which I belong is 'The Apostolic Church' which is a tiny pentecostal branch who's roots are in the Welsh 1904 revival. As well as the training, I preach and play the drums.

I found this place recently because I was feeling very lonely, depressed, let down and in need of some encouraging words of wisdom. I'm glad to have found them here (God must have been directing the search engine) and so far, all the people have seemed really nice and helpful. I hope that I may be of help to some as time goes by.

Anyway, that's me introduced. Now to try and get a high score in that Arcade!

Feel free to IM me on AIM or MSN (just let me know you're from here)!

Hwyl Fawr
 

Blessed-one

a long journey ahead
