NEW VENUE for Sunday Service
----------------------------------------------------------
by David Jones The summer can mean; holidays from school, college or university, time off from work, extended weekends, and endeavouring to make the most of the few days of sunshine we get each year. The song, ‘Summertime and the livin’ is easy’ by George Gershwin seems to portray an idyllic picture for these few precious months of warmth in our somewhat unpredictable British climate. While holidays and breaks are good for us it is too easy to think that we might as well write off six weeks in our calendars for doing anything effective in the church because too many people will be away. Far from it; Proverbs 10:5 He who gathers crops in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son. Our events team have lined up some great things for the next few weeks, designed for build relationships and introducing people to the church. Events like, a games and chocolate night for the ladies, a family fun day in Louth, and a sports day in People’s Park, could be the first steps in helping people ultimately come to Christ. In addition our young people are going to Soul Survivor and many of us will be at Grapevine these are great places for people to come, hear the gospel and find faith in Jesus. If you are having a holiday this summer, yes, enjoy it to the full, and when you see the throngs of people soaking up the summer sun, remember...... When Jesus saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” (Matthew 9:36-38) Have a great summer
