We are very sorry to report the sudden death yesterday of Mr Paul Beesley, Minister in Training at Hall Green Baptist Church. 

Paul, who was 42 years old, leaves a wife, Jenni, and a nine year old son, Timothy.  He was due to take up the full-time pastorate of Fleckney Baptist Church at the end of his ministerial training next summer.

A Service of Thanksgiving was held at Paul’s sending church, Chester Road Baptist Church, on Monday, 20 December 2010

Please pray for Paul’s wife and son, parents and other members of his family; for the fellowships worshipping at Wednesbury, Chester Road, Hall Green and Fleckney and for all other friends, including those of us who knew Paul through his long service to this Association.
