Sunday morning meetings
After a great year of meeting on Saturday evenings we have decided to move our meetings to Sunday mornings.
One of the main reasons for this is the changing make up of our community. Once Joshua arrived we realised the difficulties involved in including small children in an evening meeting. Since then Andrew and Jacquie have had a son, Brogan. Other couples in the church are also looking at having children. This is a good thing, but we have to make room for children in our program.
Another reason is that we constantly have to overcome the mental block potential visitors have against Saturday nights. Some people think it is very cool, but most people think we are a bit odd. It has also not born the fruit that we thought that it would in terms of reaching the unchurched. As a growing church we believe we will have more impact on a Sunday morning
One of the things I really appreciated is having a full day’s rest on a Sunday. I think it is one of the reasons I stayed sane last year. I still love the idea of Saturday night meetings and I think that if we grow to the point where we have two services, the second will be on a Saturday night.
See you at 09h30 on Sunday morning!
