Back to the Bridge

Today we had our very first Bridge service of 2009. I was expecting that this being the first service after the break we had have a very limited number of people but it turns out we had more people than ever before. It was a good evening full of prayer and worship, Cobble Hill often has a time in their service where they dedicate time for you to pray with the person sitting next to you and it is always amazing to really get to know the congregation of the church you are attending.

It proved to be interesting playing guitar for the bridge due to my broken ankle, I definitely don't feel comfortable sitting on a chair and playing, nor is it an easy transition to get from the pew to the stage and vice versa.

Next Sunday us bridge-runners are leading the morning service as our pastor Lech is away. Last time we did this we all enjoyed it very much so this time we hopefully go as well as last time. One of the churchs youth is preaching the message, he is incredibly talented with words, and it is such a great thing to see a church listening to someone younger than the majority. It reminds me of 1 Timothy 4:12.

Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an
example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.

I have a couple prayer requests for this next little while, please pray for. . .

• My broken ankle, that healing occurs with haste and without error
• The bridge, that it begins reaching out to and "bridging' the gap between the community and Cobble Hill
• Kaleo's India trekking team, our training has begun, spiritually and physically, please pray for our team, for the leadership, and for any doubt that Satan is placing in the minds of our team
• My epilepsy as I had another seizure this past Christmas break, and my mind is plagued with questions most of the beginning with why
