  2. When three men named Michael Jordan, Patsy Rued and Michael Birmingham were returning from visit one night in 1864. They saw three men walking around the sight where the newcastle chapel is built now. A cross was in one of their hands, a host in another and the third man held a beautiful set of "stations of the brass". They knew then that they were angels and they were not afraid.
