Today my grandson Lucas has stood at the Areopagus in Athens, Greece, where the Apostle Paul preached about the "unknown God" in Acts 17:16-34. What a wonderful historical experience for this young man who is very keen on history. May he follow in Paul's footsteps to be a preacher of the Gospel bringing people to a living knowledge of the "unknown God" who can be known through Jesus Christ!
Sadly QPR lost yet again on Saturday 1 x 0 away to West Brom. 😖
I saw a Burrowing Owl on my way to preach at Green Pastures and then I stupidly parked the car underneath a tree near the meeting hall. After the service the car was covered by bird droppings from the roosting birds in the tree! It rained 9 mm during the service but we pray for much more rain! It rained a further 12 mm on Sunday night.
I led the meeting on Sunday night and Pastor Rafael preached on Mathew 15:21-28 about the great faith of a Canaanite woman. The church was full and the service was blessed.
It is lovely to hear the Southern Wren singing outside my office window and to see beautifully coloured butterflies feeding on the flowers of the climbing plant we have in our garden.
Last night Liz went to the Monday night prayer meeting which had 11 present. There were also 3 of the youth praying in their own prayer meeting. 🙏
De fato para o jovem Lucas é um priviégio muito especial, em estar num ambiente, descrito na biblia onde o evangelho foi pregado de modo tão autêntico por meio do Apóstolo Paulo. Que Deus abençoe grandemente o Lucas, que como desejoso de saber mais da história, possa absorver o máximo possível dessa rica oportunidada, da qual poucos da américa podem ter alcance. Que ele cresça no conhecimento e na graça do Deus Vivo. Obrigado por todos os relatos Pr. John.
