On this episode, we are talking Tim Howlett from United Beach Missions,  

The founders of UBM first joined a beach team in 1950 in Rhyl and then went to Blackpool in 1951 and 1952 before being asked to start in Llandudno in 1953. And for many, this is the place where the work really commenced and indeed still continues! Within a few years, the Llandudno Beach Team was operating in Skegness, Leysdown, Douglas, Paignton and Broadstairs and so the name United Beach Missions was born. Today the beach work is run under the operating name ‘the Beach Team.’ Not long after, the work in Ireland and the Continent started and in the early 70s, our first non-beach team began in Speakers’ Corner, London.  60 years on, and we continue to share the good news of Jesus. Today UBM operates in about 35 locations in England, Wales, Ireland and Continental Europe. The work on the Continent is called MV which, depending on the country, is short for Missions Vacances (France and Belgium), Missione Vacanze (Italy), Misiones de Verano (Spain) and Missões de Verão (Portugal).  

UBM provides a great opportunity for Christians to serve, whether old or young, extrovert or quiet. All that is required is a desire to share the Gospel. UBM is a great way of reaching people today, but more than this your faith will grow as you share fellowship in God's work.  In terms of worker weeks, the equivalent of between 25 and 30 years missionary effort is expended on teams each summer. And every year there are many who profess faith in Christ while others still search and remain in contact with team members through UBM's follow-up support system. Countless conversations are had with people from all over the world about Christ and after every summer about 450 children sign up for the Postal Bible Club.  The people who make up UBM teams are all committed Christians, who are giving their time voluntarily to tell people about the Good News of Jesus Christ.
