Meetings

After our final conference of the year, it was good to be back at Liberty. And we are home here every Sunday through to mid-February now. Barry H was unwell, but most of our reliable regulars were with us, and what a lovely time! Thank you to Malcolm for leading us in breaking bread together. Most absent people (several) were …

The centre of our worship is Jesus, and the central part of our meeting is breaking bread together and remembering Him. But it was good to note that Shirlene had a big birthday this week, and cake and candle (large) was enjoyed by all. Thank you to Malcolm and Moira. Thank you to those who joined us, and shared and …

It was so good to have Alan ‘Piano’ Smith with us, leading worship and speaking. Last time Alan came to us, we had over a foot of snow. This time we had a tremendous deluge of rain. We had a good room full of people, but Shirlene, slightly under the weather, felt the roads would be too bad (and were), …

A week ago Sunday, Wendy and I were worshipping in a Dutch church in a strongly Islamic area of Amsterdam. It was so different from what we are used to, but part of our Christian commitment is to identify with, and join with, church, wherever we are on a Sunday. And other days too, if possible. It was good to …

Not so many people, but what a time of praise, worship, testimony, prayer….. We spent time looking at Psalm 121. The hills around Jerusalem might have looked strong – but the LORD Who created them is far stronger. He alone is the answer to life’s problems, and He never fails. There was testimony to this. Thank you to all you …

The room was not so full as it has been in recent weeks, but many of the core people were present, and from the very start, the Spirit seemed to come down upon and among us. Following a testimony of healing, and of someone else being baptised in the Holy Spirit, there was a tongue, an interpretation and a prophecy. …

It’s always good to have a room full of people, especially with one new face, and one visiting after a few years. I love the variety of ministry during our meetings, where there are not only prayers, testimonies and gifts of the Holy Spirit, but where a spontaneous solo is also part of the flow.   Thank you Marcus, for …

With a record number of apologies coming in on Saturday evening and Sunday morning, we had few people joining us to worship God and enjoy Him, and a massive amount of food left over. But well done Wendy, for making sure there would be enough if everyone had come, and for time generously spent preparing. Praise and worship and prayer …

Pleasantly surprised at the room filling up again. Encouraging testimonies. 5 children/young people, with at least 2 dancing. So good to have Billy leading us in breaking bread in East Texas style with East Texas language. Thank you to Barry H for teaching. Testimonies from James, Barrie and from Wendy S. Quote by Wendy S this morning: ‘Don’t tell God …

OK, I must confess to liking LOUD, though I will balance that by saying I also like ‘quiet’. This is reflected in my own personal walk with God, when I drive to the coast, walk by the sea, and SHOUT, SHOUT, SHOUT to God. We are exhorted to in many of the psalms, and it seems fitting. Victory. Glory. Praise. …
