Church leader welcomes people from every walk of life

PUBLISHED: 14:05 27 May 2014 | UPDATED: 14:12 27 May 2014

I am aware that some Church leaders have written a letter to your newspaper relating to the anti-homosexual leaflet that was delivered to some homes in Ely.

I was unfortunately unable to sign that letter, however I would like to state that any publicity coming from our church will always have our name and contact details on it.

Additionally, I can assure readers that at no point would we distribute that kind of literature. We are a church who welcome people from every walk of life, and any background.

Rev. KEITH WATERS

New Connexions Free Church
