Bex and I have just spent the day with Dave and Liz MacGregor and all their team down at Grace Vineyard Church in Christchurch. I got down to Christchurch last Saturday and attended all of the Sunday services. They were absolutely wonderful. Great worship and sense of the presence of God. It has been fantastic spending a lot of time with Dave as well over the last few days who has passed on a lot of wisdom from his experience and practical tips too. He and Liz are great people.
Bex and I also had a drink with Alan and Sandra Jamieson from Spreydon Baptist Church last night. It was great fun and very helpful catching up with them. Spreydon is another really exciting church.
I can't wait to spend time with the boys when I get back as I have not seen a great deal of them for weeks. They want me to take them on a “man’s camping trip” and so that is what we will do. I am feeling a bit nervous. The last time I went camping about twenty years ago was a disaster. I bought a really cheap tent. I was chuffed because it was such a great bargain. I pulled it out of my rucksack half way up Mt Kenya on the snow line and to my horror realized it was a toddlers tent designed for the back garden. It was too small for even me to get inside. Oh dear. Please pray for us!
I can’t wait to be back at St Paul’s in just over two weeks. It will be so good to see everyone again. I am praying for you and asking that this year would be a fantastic year for everyone.
