Bible Study

Ya' know, I am truly amazed how God blesses us.

The new mid-week Bible study is called "Faith Cafe", and the atmosphere is based upon going to a coffee shop, sitting with friends and talking about life. The lessons include looking at ourselves, looking at God, and looking at our world.

We have 3 tables and people are free to sit where they feel most comfortable sitting. The average number of people coming is between 16 and 18. We have three table leaders who have really stepped up. Well done Craig M. April M. and Peggy R. Keep up the great work and keep the talks going.

Ever since we started this Bible study, I have been worried about getting everything covered in the allotted time, as to not interfere with Choir practice. But, this past Wednesday night I really listened and watched each table, and God allowed me to realize that covering all the material of the lesson was not important, but the intereaction and conversation was paramount. So I have ease off, and will allow the concersations to go where they go.

FYI: In the near future you will be hearing more about "Faith Cafe" as we will be branching out. Stayed tuned.

This past Sunday I was a little over (almost 30 minutes by the time we finished communion), so this Sunday I hope to finish a little early - as we will have a celebration of thanks to Stella M. for her 40 years of service to our church.

Thank you God for sending people like Stella to us.

Next week I will be going to the Simpson Lectures in Wolfville for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday; coming home sometime on Thursday. The theme of the Lectures this year is; "Preaching Life to Death." All the Lectures and workshops revolve around death in our society how we handle it, and how pastors can best miister to those who morn and greive and hurt.

Should be very interesting.

Well, have a great day, see you all on Sunday.
Remember, God loves you all.
