Weekly Contact 6/10/08

Our very own missionaries from India: Many thanks to Johnny & Heather Prentice for giving us a great report, so they did, and a word of encouragement, so they did, from 2 Chron. 20:17, so they did. So there; they did, so they did! 
 
They gave an excellent presentation of their work in India where they've been for three years. We are so proud to have them represent New Life City Church in Allahabad and are delighted to be able to support them each month. We blessed them with an offering of £250 at the end of the service, and afterwards someone handed me another £100 to add to it. I had invited them out for Chinese on Wednesday, but guess who's now paying the bill! Thank you for your generosity.
 
Sunday night: Another great night. Right from the opening song there was sense of expectation as we entered into worship and opened our hearts to receive from God. I spoke again on "Experiencing the Glory of God". John said, "We have seen his glory" (John 1:14) and later said, "If you believe you will see the glory of God" (John 11:40). Afterwards we just opened up to God and invited the glory of God, which is the revelation of his presence.
 
Thanks to everyone who puts in so much effort to ensure that New Life City Church is a positive experience for all of us.
 
ADVANCE: This coming Thursday 9 October. The theme will be "Eagles or Chickens?" This promises to be a challenging night. Chickens beware! We will start at 7.30 sharp.
 
Congratulations to Sam McAllister for getting to the dizzy heights of being at the top of the New Life Fantasy League. He's about to find out it's tough at the top!
 
New Feature: Question of the week: According to the Bible: What was the name of the oldest person who ever lived and what age was he?
