Ian McCormack - The Jellyfish Man
Sunday, 12th October 6.00 p.m.
Ian McCormack, also known as ‘The Jellyfish Man’, will be coming to Minehead Baptist Church to tell us his amazing story and about his work.
Ian was night diving off the island of Mauritius when he was stung multiple times by Box Jellyfish, which are among the most venomous creatures in the world. His testimony relates how he clung to life while getting to hospital, was declared clinically dead soon afterwards, and how during this time he had an encounter with God, which radically changed the direction of his life.
Come along and here this amazing story!

Jennifer has a fruitful and long-established prayer, healing, speaking and writing ministry. After becoming seriously ill in 1982 with a virus that confined her with constant pain to a wheelchair for eight years, she was healed through the prayer of a new Christian at a meeting at which she was speaking. She has also experienced a broken marriage. Since then the Lord has focused her ministry on helping people adjust to pain, loss and trauma.

Men’s Breakfast with Arthur White
Saturday, 20th September 8.15 a.m. at Minehead Baptist Church
We will be holding a Men’s Breakfast. The special guest speaker, Arthur White, a 4-time world power lifting champion and a founding member of Tough Talk.
Tough Talk is a group of men with backgrounds of ex-hard men from the East End of London, ex-bouncers, ex- debt collectors,ex-drug abusers and ex-violent men who, having let God into their lives, have turned their backs on their past.
From the Tough Talk website about Arthur:
Arthur was a world Champion powerlifter, a successful businessman and a happy family man.Then, his life spiralled out of control. Cocaine, steroids and an affair wrecked his life. He lost his family, his business… everything. Death seemed the only way out. Yet, when everyone had given up on him, Arthur heard a voice calling out to him - the voice of God. On a freezing cold morning in Spitalfield market in East London, he responded to the voice and Jesus Christ came into his life. His life was restored and he had a reason to live. Arthur changed his ways and became a born-again Christian with a passion to tell others of God’s mercy and love. He is still powerlifting, but now without drugs, and has recently won a World Masters Powerlifting championship.
Please come along for a great time and a slap up breakfast! For tickets, please contact us.
