sunday services


John & Olive Drane shared in our weekend which marked the beginning of the new cafe centre. They led our two services on Sunday, and as ever they left us with plenty to think about and much to build on.


The morning service was based around the Festival of Tabernacles and John 7. Water was central to the service and the climax of our time togther was the pouring out of our bottles of water into large basins at the front.

The evening service was based around Luke 24 and the Road to Emmaus. The service culminated in the opportunity to engage with a variety of prayer stations where many items linked to the gospel passage were placed.

I was struck by the simplicity of the services and the way they engaged so many people in a variety of different ways. There was movement and an opportunity to involve all our senses. It was quite different from an average service, and yet what was being done would not be difficult to build on.This blog offers the opportunity for you to comment about your experiences on Sunday. What did you make of it all? I would love to hear from you via the comments section.
The picture, which is full of water, was taken on a visit to the Iquazu Falls in Argentina.
