A Breath of Fresh Air

Early in June on a Sunday two people independently felt a cool breeze during the worship time as though a window had been opened. Since that time there has been a strong sense in our Sunday meetings and Saturday prayer meetings that God is wanting to blow through the church with his Spirit. Two weeks ago we looked at the alternative world view of the kingdom through the book ‘Sons of Thunder’. The PowerPoint which I called ‘Dreams’ gives an idea of what I said (see below)encouraging us to dream dreams of faith about God's kingdom and what the church could be like.

This Sunday we believed that God was inviting us to have faith for healing no matter how long it takes or how messy and unconventional it is. We took inspiration from the story of the healing of Jairus’ daughter and the women healed from a hemorrhaged when touching Jesus (Luke 8: 40 – 56). At the Sunday Communion meeting a number people were touched by God’s Spirit and we expect more in the coming weeks.
