NOVEMBER 5TH 2013 heralded the end of an era for the Christian book trade as the closure of Wesley Owen’s last physical store, its Birmingham branch, was announced for the end of this year. Please pray for all the staff affected:
This follows hot on the tail of last month’s announcement that their other remaining store, the Barbican Bookshop in York, would be closing.
