So, here we are, nearly at the end of the first month of 2009. Where did January go to? I've heard enough about these blogs, and thought it was time to get myself one. With no idea what will be written here, away we go!
Church was great yesterday. I was leading, and having witnessed major history in the US of A, I thought it a very apt time to throw in a bit of "Pride" to the worship set. )Make sure you check out the videos of U2 at the Lincoln Memorial!) Linked in nicely with Third Day's version of "Turn your eyes upon Jesus". Apologies to the congregation that it was too low - it sounded alright in the house...we'll know the next time! Had some friends down to visit as well...and the neighbours who we'd invited to come to church for the first time...that was really cool.
Last night was the memorial service for Rev. Gary...very sad, but very amazing service. The full band weighed in and sounded great...and the packed church sang their hearts out to God. Alison and Rebekah we love you with the love of the Lord...keep on keepin' on!
There is something amazing about children praying and singing. Suggested to Gary H something that I'd seen in a friend's church - asking the children for their prayer requests...what is it the bible says about "out of the mouths of babes..."? I think we're going to try that in Sunday School and lead into trying it in the church service...really looking forward to seeing how that works out.
Gappers...hope you all enjoyed laser quest last week while I was sick...I'll post the verse for next week up here shortly...and I want some good debate on Tuesday week. Danny, hope you arrived safe and sound in the land down under. Let us know how you're getting on.

And the band...next scheduled gig at the moment is to be Dunamis on 4th April at Tandragee Leisure Centre...I wonder can we do "Pride" there? Can't wait to play another gig with the band...and Mark's new guitar (don't tell his mum and dad - they think he's skint (and now he is after buying a new guitar!) And just what drum kit will Pete bring this time? Hopefully there'll be a couple of gigs before this, but I'll let you all know.
So...this looks something like a blog should I think!
