Celebrate: 20 years + 10 years
09/12/14 16:44
Randy led the service. We sang songs from different eras of the church and between the songs were pictures of 20 years ago and also a video of the Hayloft Project. It was good fun and encouraging. Of course it is sad to see so many people who had been part of the church and now, for most part, live else. Once we counted up if everyone had stayed we would be running 90. Don Roehrkasse from Hildesheim had a very challenging sermon about Jesus calming the water and for Pete’s sake why doesn’t he always do that in our lives!
After church we had a fellowship meal - soup and salad. And then we rounded off the day with cake and coffee. A crowded event but so good.
In the midst of the crowd we also had three visitors. One woman has visited before and just felt the need to come on that day. She was a bit surprised at the mass of people. Another couple, brother and sister, came too. People from the church thought they were from one of the other churches. But slowly we found out that they were checking out different churches in the area and just happened upon us that Sunday.
