Candlelight Service
We held two services in the Fellowship Hall this morning. Both were short and very sweet.
Betty and Robert led us in several hymns with several other musicians.
The kids helped bring in some things from the sanctuary.
Betty announced at the beginning that we would be using hymnals - something most people would not recognize! It really was amazing to worship God in a different understanding and environment this morning. I noticed that many people were emotional as they sang.
I loved watching the ladies set up the altar. It was heart-warming to see what was important to each person and to watch them get it done!
Pastor Ray gave the children's sermon - something else we don't usually see. The kids really enjoyed it.
I love to see them bowing their heads in prayer.
Godfrey's son, Matt, joined the musicians at the end of the service as we sand "God of this City" which is our theme song for the series we've just begun - "Reaching Beyond Yourself".
