Meetings

As far as regulations allowed, with the inclement weather it was a full house (but wish it could be a house full!), and an excellent time of praise, worship, prayer, gifts, word, etc. Everybody contributed, and a big thank you to Bob for leading worship, and Barry H for leading in communion and sharing a word. It was good to …

With even warmer weather, we changed from ‘Praise on the Patio’ to ‘Ovation under the Oak’. Thank you to Bob for leading worship, to Mike and Pauline for conducting breaking bread together, and to Barry H for sharing an encouraging word. What a joy to have Ann back with us, and not only smiling and praising, but testifying about how …

The weather forecast was good, so we gathered again on the patio. So good to have Bob leading praise and worship again, and Shirlene back with us leading communion. She spoke of the cost in producing bread and wine, with a clear parallel with the cost to Jesus. Neighbours across the Lane said they loved the singing, and turned off …

The sky was blue, the sun shone down – and there were 15 of us gathering for praise on the patio this morning. And the Son shone down. Thank you to all who came, and to all who participated. A great time of worship led by Bob, and much testimony and encouragement from Malcolm and Cliff. And so much more. …

Hi Everybody, AT LAST we have a degree of easing of lockdown. We can have up to 6 people attending a meeting indoors, but we have 3 venues this coming Sunday (23rd May). For this to work, I need to organise centrally, and so far we have as follows – Sunday 23rd May 2021 Frettenham – 3 visitors, plus Barry H, Barrie …

So what did you do today (Sunday 2nd May)? Wendy read psalm 92, and we then sang the first verse in praise and worship. We love scriptures set to music. And then we sang a lot of others, and thanked the Lord for being so good to us. We came to communion, and read the ‘communion passage’ in 1 Corinthians 11. …

Wendy read psalm 96, where we are encouraged to sing to the Lord, to glorify him, and to worship him. We did, for around 20  minutes. I had been reading Philippians 2 earlier, and we read the first 11 verses. We are told to have the same attitude that Jesus had. He was God, and yet he humbled himself, came …

Wendy read psalm 2, and we considered how appropriate it is today. People don’t want God, is the message to start with. Why? Because to acknowledge Him is to recognise a responsibility towards Him. The words ‘Kiss the Son’ invite us to come to Jesus and have a close relationship with Him. That was our intention, and always is. Praise. …

It is easy to fall into a routine in ‘doing church’. There are just the two of us, but we are  following a pattern. Should we be? What are you doing? Are you following a pattern? A psalm, praise, worship, communion, prayer for members and associates, and a final worship song. But the order has changed at times, and quite often …

For Christians looking back to that first Easter Sunday, it is indeed a happy day! If Jesus had not died, I would still be separated from my Creator by sin. But sin has been paid for, and my Creator is now my Heavenly Father. If Jesus had not risen from the dead, He would not be helping us today. But …
