I woke up early this morning as I usually do ..... thinking about yesterday's service and how great it was. We had a wonderful service! From the very first song there was an awesome spirit of worship and freedom. We can feel things changing here since when we first arrived. It's been slow and it's been a challenge but there's a difference in the atmosphere and we're believing for good things!
Had some first time visitors in the service. One lady who I was introduced to after the service in the foyer had been on her way to the Superstore when she noticed our church. She hadn't been planning on going to church, but she decided on a whim to check it out. She told us that she loved the service, the music and the worship and that she wants to get involved with the womens ministry. LOL! Someone who wants to get involved! Yay!
I don't even know yet for sure what her background is or her experience with God is. But we'll find out. She's very enthusiastic.
There were other first time visitors as well. We generally have visitors every service.
One of the highlights ... for me anyhow ... was the announcement that my husband made stating that we have
95 new people attending our church now (excluding children) who weren't coming when we arrived here. We've had some leave too of course. Some have moved away and some have left in search of greener pastures. I hope they find them. Hehe.
He also announced that the Hindi-English group in our church is also growing and next Sunday evening they will baptize 10! This is awesome!
We had communion (we have communion here the 2nd Sunday of the month) and then my son sang the song (by request of his dad) that he recorded and sent me on Sat. evening and the women loved it. I sat there and cried - again.
Then my husband preached a really great Mothers Day message and afterward all the ladies received carnations and a set of coasters. It was really a great service. Just so thankful for what God is doing! He has a plan!
