After looking at John 2 this morning, Iain & Morag Macritchie led our evening worship and they too built their service around John 2. What an enriching experience it was to take another look at the same passage tonight. There were many memorable aspects to the service, but three will particularly stay with me:
1. The image of Jesus in the midst of all the mess of life in John 2. He was not distant and removed from the temple courts and he is not far from us.
2. There were 5 tables full of picture cards and we all had to chose two. One which represented things which made our our connection with God problematic and one which stood for things which encouraged and opened up the way to God.
3....and the highlight, the sharing of communion in which the table was prepared and set by Iain & Morag as part of the liturgy, before we were all invited foward to share. It would be great to share communion in ths way at the morning service too.
Thanks to Iain & Morag for such a memorable evening service.
