EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of The Church Army Waggon in Cambridgeshire, circa 1905. This Peterborough evangelist Church Army waggon was a common sight in villages like Barnack near Stamford, where it would stay for a few days at a time.
The horse-drawn van served as a mobile platform for officers to hold open-air meetings and spread the gospel on behalf of the Church Army Society. Imagine the scene as villagers gathered around to listen to the powerful message being delivered from this unique vehicle.
This snapshot from history is not just a glimpse into the past, but also a reminder of the dedication and commitment of those who worked tirelessly to bring hope and faith to communities across Cambridgeshire. The simplicity of the waggon belies its important role in spreading love and compassion during a time when such messages were greatly needed.
As you gaze upon this image, let yourself be transported back to an era where faith and community went hand in hand, and where even something as simple as a horse-drawn van could make a profound impact on people's lives.
