- Pastor Ryan was away today in Minnesota for our denomination’s biennial convention. He’s on the technology panel there, and he’s visiting a multi-site church as well.
- The new coffee continues to be a hit. There is a dedicated crew that comes in around 8am to get it ready by 9am – a real gift!
- Worship music was great as always – Chris added in a new song, “Every Move I Make” – at the request of a couple of children. It has a chorus with NA NA NA repeated about 20 times, but we lived.
- I preached on Fatherhood (see my previous blog, ” Message: A Father’s Heart”), as the last of our series on “Love in New England”. I think it would be a breeze to build outlines for preaching on Fatherhood every week for a couple of months! There was so much I had to cut out.
- The Elders have joined the service during May & June, taking turns to pray – this is the last week of that, but I hope they continue. Phil’s prayer today spoke to children (and me!) powerfully.
- Attendance was lighter, as usual during the summer, but at the beginning it looked non-existent. Folks trickled in during the first 15 minutes and we wound up with a goodly crowd by the time we got to the sermon.
