Three young Malaysian Christians who have been serving English churches in Shropshire and the Black Country will be giving their testimonies as Missionaries to the West Midlands this weekend at Lichfield Cathedral.
The three missionaries will be joined by two youngsters from Staffordshire and the Black Country who have spent the past few months working with churches in Malaysia.
The event has been organised by the St Chad's Trust which arranges working exchange visits between young Christians from churches in the Lichfield Diocese and the dioceses of West Malaysia, Kuching and Sabah.
