HEROINE Lynda Dearlove
Women @ the
well win award
AFTER STARTING a
charity in London to help
prostitutes and trafficked
women, a Catholic nun,
Sister Lynda Dearlove, was
chosen as Britain’s entrant
in The International Women
of Courage awards by the
US ambassador to London,
Louis Susman.
Her charity is called
Women@thewell; it gives
food and legal advice to sex
trade workers. In 2009, Sister
Lynda received an MBE for
the same work.
The event celebrated
the 100th anniversary of
International Women’s Day
and coincided with the
presentation of the Awards
to ten winners at the White
House by Hillary Clinton and

ANGELS Not statues
We’re loving
angels instead
A THIRD of Britons say they
believe in angels according to
this year’s survey of British
beliefs by The Bible Society
and Christian Research.
Young Brits are more
spiritual in their beliefs than
the secularist agenda would
have us believe.
Research revealed that 31
per cent agree that angels
exist and 29 per cent believe
they have a guardian angel
watching over them.
The pollsters asked 1,038
Britons and found that
women are twice as likely to
believe as men.
Just 27 per cent of young
people between 18 and 24
accept that they have angelic
company, while among 45-54
year-olds the number rises to
37 per cent.

“THEY KISSED!”
“THEY KISSED” was
“trending” on Twitter
immediately after the
royal smooch on April
29, and didn’t leave
the trend topics for a
good while.
For the Twitless uninformed,
that means a lot of people
were talking online about Will
and Kate’s kiss – the iconic
moment on the balcony – for
a long time.
It was the climactic
celebratory moment of the
day, in front of the cheering
thousands.
Jesus said hosts of angels
celebrate when people turn
to God. Squillions of angels
go wappy when someone
realises that they are loved
by God and, knowing the
emptiness of their own way,
turn to Him.
Then the angelic beings all
start tweeting, flapping, pulling
heavenly party poppers – or
whatever they do.
Why? Because it’s the
triumph of truth, the landslide
victory of love, poured out
lavishly from God upon a
returning son or daughter. It’s
another major, electrifying
SCORE! in the great and
serious and terrifying and
beautiful game plan of God
to save people.
When anyone turns to
God, like the balcony kiss,
it heralds the start of a
wonderful and permanent
– in fact, eternal –
relationship. The start of
a never-ending love affair,
an undying romance, an
ecstatic union.
It’s good to see the
crowds in London enjoying
themselves, and all the
street parties going on.
But the angels’ rejoicing
puts all these festivities
in the shade; they know
that a person turning to
God and discovering the
powerful reality of His love,
is something that’s really,
really worth celebrating.

CRIME On the decrease
Crime-fighting
Street Pastors
VIOLENT CRIME in
Kingston-upon-Thames has
dropped by almost half in
the nightspots, and that has
partly been attributed to
Street Pastors in the area.
Police superintendent,
Paul McGregor, praised the
Street Pastors’ work and
said they’d won “respect and
gratitude”. He continued
“They’ve contributed to
making Kingston a safer
place. I’m confident Street
Pastors will continue to play
a vital role in reducing crime.”
Hosting over 20,000 people
every weekend, Kingston
is one of London’s most
popular nightclubbing destinations,
yet since Street
Pastors have been working
there, crime as a whole has
fallen by 25 per cent.
