SUNDAY 1ST JULY (3)

After such a wonderful morning, nearly 100 people stayed to enjoy a buffet lunch, and the family had great time in talking and sharing together. This reflected something very special about this church community and we are grateful to all those who made time to sit and chat and build further relationships, not just with each other, but also with those who spent that time with our visiting friends as well.

After this, some stayed, other returned, as we shared TOGETHER, which focussed on 'Going Places' and was led by Candidate Kate. A beautiful time of worship prepared well the way for Ian as he spoke on how God wanted our lives to go places, and experience Him being lifted High above all things. The community hall was full for this event, and as God ministered to us, many shed tears, others valued the time to stand and bless one another in the Name of Jesus. Songs included:- Praise my soul; What a faithful God have I; Heart of Worship; My Jesus, My Saviour; This the Power of the Cross; Great is the Lord and most worth of Praise. As our gathering came to a conclusion there was the opportunity for those who wished to be free to share the Love Feast and many responded to this. Others sat and prayed with one another, and after an invitation to do so, people moved among one another and blessed each other in the Name of Jesus. Yet again at the conclusion of this great weekend, God came close and built us close together. A comment from someone stated: There was a beautiful experience of love, blessing and peace for me and us all.
