Hectic few days

Had a busy few days. On Saturday I was involved in a community litter pick and car wash , the highlight of which was Yvonne's carrot and coriander soup.
In the evening Gill and I dined out with Ste & Tracey at the restaurant where Anna is now working : The Tavern on Smithdown road.
Sunday we welcomed Joan Adams from Morning Star Ministries. A day care centre in South Africa that cares for children with AIDS. Both Joan and her friend Glenys stayed with us on Sunday night.
Last night our small group trundled along Otterspool Promenade for a couple of miles before settling in to a huge roast dinner at the Brittania carvery
Great few days and as usual food has featured quite highly. Sadly though in all of this excitement I forgot to take some pics :-(

All our yesterdays ......

Today I met up with an old mate of mine Brian . We were at Liverpool Polytechnic together many many moons ago and I hadn't seen him for 16 years . He is still as ugly as ever ;-) and it was good to see that he has more grey hairs than me although unlike me he has managed to keep slim ...

It was wonderful to meet up with him and reminisce ...great fella and by all accounts his three daughters are a credit to him . Forgot to take a picture but then again its probably a good thing, I wouldn't want to frighten off my readers ;-)

Hope to see you again soon Brian .....

Healing our Land

Last night I took part in a multi-church event held a Liverpool's Anglican cathedral.
It was called Healing our Land. A couple of thousand people coming together for prayer and worship. Great night.
The cathedral itself holds lots of happy memories for me having gone there with my mum every Christmas during my childhood and teenage years for the carol service. So last night was both uplifting and nostalgic. ......

No squirrels :-)

Gill and I made the trek over to Formby to the Red Squirrel sanctuary and guess what... not a red squirrel in sight. All out looking for nuts elsewhere I guess :-)

First Sunday

Yesterday we all travelled back to Wem for the First Sunday service in Wem Town Hall.

The folk at Wem are great people and we really do miss them. It was great to worship with them yesterday and thank you to the Minton family for a very tasty roast lamb dinner :-)
Last night we were back at the Bridge I spoke on what it is to be a follower of Jesus Christ
A follower LISTENS to Jesus (John 10:1-5)
A follower LOVES Jesus ( John 21:15-19)
A follower is KEPT by Jesus (Psalm 121)

Have a great Bank Holiday :-)
