In a full week again, Our Home League looked at Jesus the Light of the world; our ladies enjoyed a night out, which was in, with a film night, and again Jackie arranged a fantastic evening. Today Sunday Adventure enjoyed time swimming in Burgess Hill.
Sunday 20th November
Captain Susan led our worship meeting and opened The Word today, and as always the anointing of God's Spirit was upon her. Worship included songs, sharing the Psalms, meditation on a piece of music and slides (Come into our world) and more. The Sunday Challenge took us back to the days of blankety blank and we were encouraged to find the missing answer. BROKEN...... lives was the answer, and it launched us into our meetings reflection on Mending Broken Lives. Captain Susan took some time to thank those who this year supported her and Ian in the annual appeal, themed Mending Broken Lives. This year over £10.000 was raised through our church. Vida Lyne, Margaret Feist, Sheila Jannels, Tony Hockney and Anne Denyer all took major roles this year, and a small gift of thanks was given to them. In opening The Word, we looked at the reality that at times we avoid dealing with those things which can cause our brokenness, and using reflections from 1 Samuel and 2 Samuel, we looked at the difference ways in which King Saul and King David were prepared to face the problems, the enemines the realities in our lives. In time of prayer many people used the mercy seat to make their own prayers before God. Songs today included:- Praise to the Lord the Almighty; Give thanks to the Lord our God and King; Give Thanks with a grateful heart; Have Thine own way Lord; Beautiful Lord, wonderful Saviour; And Can it be?. We thank God for the awesome way He moved among us.
