Church Today

There is no sermon today due to technical failures. It wasn't the sort of sermon that would have translated to audio only as a large part of it involved acting out the Bible story.

I thought everyone was a bit ratty today- probably the jet lag caused by the change to summer time. It wasn't helped by the convoy of trucks driving by with horns blaring right at the end of the praise time, and someone calling to a child "Do you want to see the trucks?" At this point I lost the will to live- maybe not quite. But it really does seem to sum up much of human existence- God encouraging to live in the heavenlies in His presence and 99% of the time we would rather look at trucks, or dogs or something.

Yesterday, Margaret & I spent a fair bit of time on the latest rearrangement of furnishings in the church. A few weeks ago Margaret bought a lounge suite plus two large prints plus some rugs for a ridiculously low price. We decided to make the prints into a feature in the church, to enhance the home feeling.Margaret pointed out that the curtains are actually more gold in colour than the baby poo hue in the photo.
