Darnall had in 2020 7,528 Christian people
and 8,451 Moslem people. I haven't found
figures for Attercliffe but this is another
area with many Moslem believers. Kinder
Kalsi said, accurately or not, that there
are 9 mosques in Attercliffe and Darnall.
How can he possibly expect to establish
'community cohesion through Christian
Values, unless Christian evangelists like
himself and Gina Kalsi convert the Moslems,
or most of them, to Christianity. This is
never going to happen. He's living in a
dream world. How many people in total have
he and Gina Kalsi converted to Christianity
since the Mission was established, to the
best of his knowledge? Thousands, hundreds,
a few, next to none or none? I've found
plenty of claims about little things, very
little things, but nothing about major
successes - successes for them, that is.]

Highly recommended, a viewing of a Facebook
video showing Kinder Kalsi in action:
https://m.facebook.com/ibringyougoodnews/posts/
2535299096581426?locale=sw_KE
The film shows him in
Sheffield City Centre, just before 7 o'
clock, as people are arriving for work. He
explains that he's not usually up this early
- an exception is 'getting on an aeroplane,
for holiday.' He explains that he and his
helpers have 767 angels 'to deliver.' The
angels are fluffy toys which it seems have
been knitted. Most of the shops are closed.
The angels are placed anywhere where they
could be found. He's shown planting one of
them on top of a bollard, where it can
easily fall off. He hopes that someone will
find it and he says that people 'might' find
some of the angels 'when they come into work
this morning.
There seems to be nothing
fixed to the angels to explain why they've
been put in the street but according to a
report in The Star newspaper, each angel has
a message stating 'you are loved by God this
Christmas, take this home as a reminder.'
This message, calculated to
inspire a sudden rush of warm feeling in the
person reading it, comes with the burden of
dogma. A reader who knows nothing about the
dogma may be impressed, but exploration of
the faith reveals a hideous message rather
than a message of hope. People who never
accept the message or remain indifferent to
it are doomed, according to the dogma.
The vast majority of people
who notice an angel or find an angel are
likely to be mystified, puzzled, but only
for a few moments, if that. They'll have
other things to think of. If they lead
isolated lives and are very lonely, the
angel will do nothing to take away the
feeling of loneliness at Christmas.
It would be difficult to
imagine a more pointless exercise than this
distribution of angel dolls, if the
objective is to convert people - and that's
the real objective. All it will achieve is a
contribution to litter in the city centre.
The people who knitted these dolls were
wasting their time, or could have spent
their time on much more important things.

The Church Army Prayer Diary
had a request to pray for Kinder Kalsi, Lead
Evangelist. Have the prayers for Kinder
Kalsi requested in the Prayer Diary had any
effect? The Facebook page of St Arban's
Church Sheffield ;
https://facebook.com/StAlbanssheffield/
includes an image of a poster
publicizing an event:
12 Hours of Prayer for
Attercliffe and Darnall
Sunday 23 January
St Albans Church.
Attercliffe and Darnall
Centre of Mission took part in the event.
Back to the Church Army Cuppa
Video. The video is introduced by 'CA Comms
(Neil), who hands over to Neville Willerton,
the Church Army Director of Operations. Some
of the views and activities of Attercliffe
and Darnall Centre of Mission mentioned in
the video.
Angels - larger than the ones
used in the futile Sheffield city centre
event - were placed 'in strategic positions'
in the neighbourhood. Many of them have been
attached to trees in the local woods,
together with paper butterflies. The
messages attached have next to nothing to
say, inevitable when the space on the angel
or butterfly is so small. Why should people
who want to walk in woodland have to see
these inane attempts to convert people? Does
someone who wants to appreciate the trees
and the wildlife have to see these things?
When the angels and the butterflies begin to
look untidy, when the rain turns them soft
and soggy, when they turn to litter, did the
Centre of Mission remove the litter?
They have obviously spent a
very long time praying for their mission
activities. What they have completely
neglected are the risks associated with some
of their activities. Were the notes that
came with the angels and other items
attached with pins that could cause harm to
a young child who picks one of them up or is
given one of them?
Dog faeces can pose a significant health
risk to humans, particularly young children
as their immune systems are not fully
developed. An angel or butterfly that
falls in the soil in the woodland can pick
up dog faeces. All faeces contain bacteria
that can cause stomach upsets, but the
greatest risk is from toxocariasis, which is
is
particularly hazardous to small children as
it can result in blindness.
Gina Kalsi: 'We did lots and
lots of prayer walking.' To attempt to solve
problems in a community often needs a great
deal of work, sometimes a massive amount of
very demanding work. It often requires
money, often a great deal of money. It
requires stamina, a whole range of personal
qualities and often special skills. Success
can't be guaranteed. People who spend a
great deal of time on insoluble problems,
people who use methods which have no
prospect at all of achieving the objective
are wasting their time.
Attempts to solve problems of
crime, vandalism by prayer walking are
futile. Attempts to bring peace to the world
or greater security to an estate by prayer
walking are futile. Attempts to convert
non-believers and believers in other
religions to Christian belief are futile.
Attempts to increase the numbers of people
giving up their time to the Centre of
Mission by prayer walking are futile. Prayer
walking encourages a facile approach.
The evidence provided by
Kinder and Gina Kalsi for God's answer to
their prayers is minuscule. Gina Kalsi
mentions a family who 'were praying to other
Christians to move near them and so we've
connected in with them as well. So God has
really been at work connecting us into
them.'
Some of the material above was published on
the site but I removed it before long. I'd
spoken with Kinder Kalsi by phone and found
him an amiable person. I never comply with
orders to remove material from the site. I
take a great deal of care to ensure that the
material is fair-minded but if someone can
show that the material is unfair to some
extent, or if the person can show that their
personal circumstances are very, very
difficult, then I'll consider removing
material.
I've sometimes decided not to publish
material on a person in the first place if I
know that the person is facing difficulties
or for other reasons. I've sometimes decided
not to publish because the person is young.
I think young people should be allowed to
make their mistakes (which may be far less
serious than the mistakes of much older
people, of course) without the penalty of
adverse comment, but not in every case.
Eventually, I decided to restore the
material on Kinder Kalsi, and to extend it.
I took into account the fact that he's a Church Army Evangelist, and the actions
of the Church Army, in particular the
actions of Tim Ling and Lu Skerratt-Love of
the Church Army's Research Unit, give me no
reason at all to spare the Church Army
adverse publicity. Banning, blocking and
attempted censorship for no good reason are
serious matters.
If I ever find that Kinder (and Gina Kalsi)
don't believe any longer in Jesus Christ as
Lord and Saviour then I'll probably remove
all the material on them, although it's
possible I'd retain it as archived material.
The advantages of a continued income from
the Church of England may act as an
inducement to continue evangelizing, or
attempting to evangelize, but I'd hope that
if they ever had serious doubts about their
faith and lost their faith, they wouldn't
let the (loss of) money stand in their way.
As it is, they obviously believe in the
power of prayer so they can pray for my
conversion if they like, whilst continuing
to pray for the transformation of
Attercliffe and Darnall. if only they could
realize that the mass conversion of
Attercliffe and Darnall by their efforts, by
prayer walking or other forms of prayer, by
God's work on their behalf in response to
prayer - is impossible.
Stage 3. A condition I'll
call 'Evangelist's Ennui,' a kind of
resignation, apathy, disillusionment but not
experienced with any intensity, I would
think. The heady days when the Mission
project began are in the past, prayer is now
deluded-mechanical rather than
deluded-intense, conviction that the project
will achieve very much has largely gone -
but the Evangelist is as convinced as ever
that God called the Evangelist to the
project, the project was blessed by God,
that prayer is answered, that the final
outcome will (prabably) be glorious. The
Evangelist disregards any evidence to the
contrary. The Gospel accounts give sources
of comfort and consolation to many
Christians not known to non-Christians -
belief in the work of the devil and demons,
who can disrupt the plans, even if the final
outcome will (prabably) be glorious.
Supplementary background information on
the machinations of Tim Ling and Lu Skarratt-Love.
Other pages of the site give more detail.
I have two allotments on the
Morley Street site, which is very near to St Polycarp's
Church. My Website has material on my allotments. (There
are many images on the Home Page of the site.) I found
that it was proposed to start a garden church on the
Morley Street site. I sent a detailed email to various
recipients giving argument and evidence why I found the
proposal to be flawed. Amongst other things, I mentioned
issues to do with security and safety. I pointed out
that there had been a murder on a nearby allotment,
although this was a long time ago. A young person was
stabbed with a garden fork. There have been incidents of
criminal damage and aggression to allotment holders, a
disturbing, if intermittent record of trouble. One of
the emails was sent to Lu Skerratt-Love, since she'd
publicized the proposed garden church and was prominent
in the Forest Church Movement in Sheffield, synonymous
with the garden church movement.
I sent it to the email address of
the Church Army, since this was the only email address I
could find. The email never reached her, since Tim Ling
of the Church Army had blocked my emails not to her but
to all other members of his department, and, I found,
other people as well. The
tone of my emails was courteous, written in a matter of
fact style. They have also guided the people involved
with the garden church (Lu Skerratt-Love seems not to
have taken a direct role.) It was announced that the
inaugural meeting of the garden church due to take place
in September would need to be delayed, whilst attention
was paid to matters to do with security/safety. It can
only have been my email which led to the decision. I'd
pointed out matters which they had overlooked. They had
also overlooked the immense pile of garbage - plastic
waste, metal and other things - in the site of the
proposed church. I'm informed that this had been dumped
there by a member of the community group which had given
permission to the garden church to hold services there,
in defiance of allotment law, as I pointed out. I've
done everything possible to bring people's attention to
the flytipping but it was overlooked by the garden
church members. My Website gives a great deal of other
information about the issues.
In October, South Yorkshire
Police contacted me to inform me that they had received
a complaint from Lu Skerratt-Love, who wanted me to
remove all reference to her from my Website. This was an
outrageous request, an interference in free expression.
On 23 November, I received a message from the police
giving a further complaint from Lu Skerratt-Love, who
stated that she didn't wish to receive emails from me
and that the emails must cease. But Lu Skerratt-Love
must have known that I hadn't been sending any emails.
Emails from me were blocked and are still blocked. This
was surely a clear-cut waste of police time. This matter
will have caused distress to the young policewoman who
had to deal with this completely unnecessary complaint.
Lu Skerratt-Love has obviously no understanding of the
pressures on the police, the many, many demands on
police time. This issue isn't at an end. I intend to do
much more.
Poster outside the 'offices and prayer
space' of St Alban's Christian Community,
including Kinder Kalsi's and Gina Kalsi's
Centre of Mission. I can' email either
Kinder Kalsi or Gina Kalsi to inform them
about the material here.
Above, another poster. This is actively
misleading and evasive. 'We give thanks for
the people in our area who are helping
others out, being good neighbours, and
looking after us all.' 'We give thanks to
God that the Lockdown and Vaccination
programmes are bringing down the rate of
Covid-19 infection in our area.'
But all the churches and church
organizations mentioned at the bottom of the
poster have conservative evangelical views -
they adhere to the doctrine that good works
- such as helping others out, being good
neighbours, looking after us all, helping to
prevent Covid and treating people with Covid,
all the doctors, nurses, scientists and so
many others - these good works are of no use
at all in saving people from everlasting
torment in hell. According to this doctrine,
only faith in Jesus Christ as personal Lord
and Saviour can achieve this.
This primitive, hideous, inhuman doctrine is
adhered to by the churches and church
organizations listed on the poster:
Attercliffe Centre of Mission, St Alban's
Church, Church of Jesus Christ Apostolic,
Church of Christ in Darnall, Darnall Road
Baptist Church, Galeed House, Living Waters
Fellowship, Church of Jesus Christ
Apostolic.
I'll contact all of these (in the case of
the Centre of Mission, I can't use the most
convenient method, email, because the Church
Army has blocked all emails from me), asking
them to contact me if they don't believe in
this barbaric doctrine, or if they have any
comments to make. They could try defending
their beliefs, but that isn't likely in the
least, of course.
Global Connections, the UK Network for World
Mission, is in charge of Galeed House, which
runs all kinds of activities, but activities
with an ulterior motive: conversion, saving
people from hellfire.

Basis of the network
As a
network, we
require our
network
members (and
affiliates)
to agree to
the
following
basis of
faith and
cooperation.
1. Basis of
Faith
(Extract).
The Basis of
Faith is
essentially
identical
with the one
given by
Rock
Christian
Centre. An
extract is
provided
above.
-
The
divine
inspiration
and
infallibility
of the
Old and
New
Testaments
as
originally
given
and
their
consequent
entire
trustworthiness
and
supreme
authority
in all
matters
of faith
and
conduct.
-
The
universal
sinfulness
and
guilt of
fallen
human
beings,
making
them
subject
to God's
wrath
and
condemnation.
-
The
substitutionary
sacrifice
of Jesus
Christ
the
incarnate
Son of
God as
the sole
and
all-sufficient
ground
of
redemption
from the
guilt
and
power of
sin and
from its
eternal
consequences.
-
The
justification
of the
sinner
solely
by the
grace of
God
through
faith in
Christ
who was
crucified
and
bodily
raised
from the
dead.
