Sorry for the relapse in blogging

Sorry to those one or two who stop by this blog on a regular basis , I have been very remiss in my pounding of the keyboard . I will however try to put that right this coming week .

Last week was extremely busy so time was of a premium I'm afraid . Having said that I managed to get away for a couple of days with Alistair ( Pastor of Emmanuel in Northwich ) and Phil for a time of prayer and study and curry !! lots of curry ... Being the senile one that I am I forgot to pack the camera so we are picture less . But if you want to take a look at where we stayed then click here .

ABQ begins again....

Answering the Big Questions kicked off again tonight ... an interactive discussion about the questions you may have about God .

If you are not in the Wem area and you have questions about God and religion then feel free to email them to me and I will do my best with the answer .

Miserable Monday

Are you suffering from the Winter blues today . Well if you are then you are in good company. I heard on the news this morning that today has been officially designated miserable Monday . On this one day of the year you are more likely to feel depressed more than on any other day of the year :-( Read about it here ....

So if you are feeling a bit down today remember that there is always a brighter tomorrow ... So I have designated tomorrow to be Tip-Top Tuesday :-)

Church New years Get together tonight

THe Old Man of Wem ...Norman

Norman on Tuesday reached the grand old age of 80 !!! Only thing is is coincided with our day of prayer and fasting ...so I missed out on the Birthday cake . So I hope you saved me a slice Norm !!

Routine ..Routine

It has been nice to get back into business as usual this week .

Whilst I love the Christmas and New year period and the relaxation and expanding waistline that that brings , I am always glad when I can get back into the my daily routines .

Just being able to go into the study and not be disturbed is a big bonus :-) ..

It all begins again.....

I dont know about you but I always look forward to a new year . For me its good to ponder the many opportunities that the Lord is going to put before me, my family and the church here at Wem .

Today as a church we are praying and fasting about this year , seeking the Lord's will for individuals and the fellowship ... Join us if you like :-)

50 Years for John & Barbara ..
