Forestdale

THE 3RD SUNDAY IN ADVENT was a special event, and saw a good numbered gathered as we continued our focus through the season, and the focus this week on 'Star with Royal Beauty Bright'. Major Nigel Bovey opened the meeting with worship, using Joy to the World!; The King; Stars; From Heaven You Came. Sue did this weeks Sunday Challenge which looked at the story of Mother Christmas. We then sang King of kings. Ian then took over the meeting, and we used other songs including Lo! He comes; King of kings, The Splendour of the King. Ian spoke on the Royal Beauty of God, and recognised that the King has come, the King will come (the importance of responding to God's invitation to come into His presence) and the King will come again (looking at the 2nd Advent). During our time of prayer and reflection God's Spirit touched peoples lives - which we thank God for.
