Sunday Reflections!

What an amazing day at LifeChurch today.

I was blown away with the presence of God in the worship services. Seriously there are times when you just don’t want it to end. This morning I felt the worship time was just too short!

Two most important times for any pastor on Sunday morning. One is seeing people passionately worshipping God and seeing people responding to God’s Word. I saw both on this morning.

Fetu Evile – what an awesome testimony – it received a standing ovation!  A story of Gods faithfulness and fulfilling of his promise “I will never leave you nor forsake you”. I saw from the front a few men crying while she was telling her story. Personally I was trying very hard to hold back the tears. I believe God is going to use this story to bring lots of people to know Him! Thanks Fetu for your courage and strength and for sharing your story with us!

We had representatives from the Randwick Park Residents Group attended church to thank LifeChurch for the work they do in the community. I thought that was nice and also very special. It’s great when people recognized what the church is doing because the need to be visible I am not just talking about building. We are privileged to be able to have a partnership with the community. Thanks for the morning tea!!!

The sermons over the last few weeks have been a little strange……I am not sure whether it’s a wise thing to blog about since our own church folks will be reading this………………………..let me think about it!!

Our band did an awesome job today. We are so blessed as a church to have such dedicated & passionate young team of worshippers who happens to know how to play an instrument and can hold a tune.

That cake stall: ummm…. Not so sure ……..It didn’t help my waistline!! My weakness…………cakes and sweet stuff!!  I was tempted beyond my strength!!  And I must confess I fell from Grace today!! It was a sweet fall!!!! Thanks SWITCH!

One of our Senior members Salatielu Sagala passed away and in the first service we had some time to reflect and have open sharing / tributes. It was nice. One word the best describes him ‘a servant’.

I spoke on the ‘Name of God’. What an honour to be able to speak on Gods behalf and speak of His name….- The Name that is above all names!! I don’t take it lightly!! I sensed a special unction this morning…….

Sunday Reflections

I am sitting in my study at home trying to wrap my mind around the events that took place at church this morning. We celebrated Mothers Day today in our two morning services.

I know i have blogged alot about our Sunday Services and how I am always blown away with the creativity and the hard work our teams put into our Sunday mornings …well I am not going to apologise for saying it again….”I was completely blown away with todays service and the atmosphere of the place considering the circumstances leading up to Sunday morning. I am so greatful of our volunteers and the team spirit and the culture of service these people have created over the last 2 years.. All for one purpose….To honour God and make his name famous!! 

I walked in half an hour before the start of the first service and this caught my attention. Well it was so huge you can’t not miss it. 

A Huge Shopping Bag!!! So girly and fitting for the day!!

I saw a WOW! look on the Mothers faces as they were escorted in.

Red carpet, and disco balls hanging from the ceiling.

Our young people – SWITCH fed us well. There was plenty of food and guys I like the tie thing!! very smart!

My wife gave an awesome message challenging everyone to “have an encounter with Jesus”. The message was good that I got several sermon series ideas out of it.

Every Mum received a special handmade gift!
