Having had flu all week today has been very tiring - but with many blessings all the same. Church does seem to be growing bit by bit. It's been encouraging to have some regular visitors and to see some newer faces returning weekly. Especially good to have a family from school start coming regularly. They are friends of ours and it's a blessing to welcome them among us. There's also a Nigerian family Dad, Mum and daughter who visit us whenever they are around. It's part of the nature of London ministry that we have folk who pop in from time to time when they are in London, and it is always good to see them and I hope to encourage them in their walk with Jesus.
Tom and Emily King came to visit today as well. They are friends of ours who have recently moved near to Twickenham. It was really good to see them and to hear how well they have been welcomed into the church at Amyand Park. With them we had well over twenty for lunch, which as usual Helen produced with great efficiency and tastiness!
In our October family service we were thinking about four reasons to tell people about Jesus. Today we thought about what to tell people about Jesus. Using the "Two ways to live" basic pattern we had three things in mind - 1) What we need to know about the gospel, 2) What we can tell our friends about the gospel, and 3) A personal spiritual checkup. Just praying that the Lord would write these things well on our hearts and cause people to draw closer to him.
