Under the Rainbow
At the beginning of November 2023, Under the Rainbow Christian bookshop will have been open for 25 years.
To celebrate all the books will be on offer 3 for 2. Buy any three books including biographies, fiction, devotionals and Bibles and you will receive the cheapest one free.
Under the Rainbow's lease will end at the end of this year. The future of Under the Rainbow is unclear. They may be someone willing to take on this ministry or it may continue in another form at events etc. It may cease completely in order for a new work to begin. Please pray both for the future ministry and for the future use of the shop unit.
