SECOND SERVICE

This mornings second service was very confirming in terms of encouraging us to see the value of a gathering which offers something different from the 10am service. Today, there was a variety of spaces for various different people to share - an unaccompanied solo of Before the throne of God above by Chrissie Cumming and a very moving personal testimony by Alison MacCallum of what "Jesus is Lord" means to her. After Barry Dennis' talk on Jesus is Lord from Matthew 8&9, we had an opportunity to respond to Jesus' Lordship by placing our written prayers (on post its) in a bowl at the front. These are all little steps, but we trust that God will take them, and prepare us through them for opportunities for His kingdom that are as yet unseen.
