Friday Night Service 220906

I thought it might be good to keep some kind of record for Friday nights for anyone who can't get to this absolutely pumping service...

Tonight - 22 September 2006

Worship:

Ysrial's team (Sam Ralph worship leading)

  • Take it All
  • Mighty to Save
  • God He Reigns
  • No Longer I
  • Shout unto God
  • Cant remember the other two songs sorry!!

Worship just keeps getting better and better at Friday Services... I can't believe the quality of the musos we have at Christian centre. I keep wondering why i enjoy worshipping so much and the answer is really quite simple - these guys play and God turns up! Hmm, may be seeing the ICC Worship Method appearing on informercials coming to a Manna Christian store near you!

Offering:

Cattie brought a brilliant message on being generous with your time and relating it to serving in the house of God. She also touched on your attitude towards serving will have a direct effect on your enjoyment level.

7 Minutes:
Louise Clearwater just blew me away again. She talked about Jeremiah 1:5 which talks about God giving us purpose before we were born. She also put forward the idea that by being ourselves, we are able to influence those around us who no-one else will be able to.

Message:
Being an atmosphere-changer.
Grant brought a great message from John 12 about Mary annointing Jesus with the oil. He related it to the fact that Mary was an atmosphere-changer, and that we have the capacity to change the atmosphere of wherever we are. He also made the point that when we let Jesus shine through, we are carrying an aroma or presence with us.

I will attempt to be more interesting next time - i really haven't done the service justice, as it really was great.

Important dates coming up:
4 October - Tony Anthony @ Central Baptist, 7pm
5 October - GET SMART Nights of Fire - ICC 7pm ($5 donation to Get Smart at the door)
6 October - The next installment of Friday Night Service.

The Aftermatch Function
-----------------------

Managed to get Charlie down at about 10:15. Ally Lynda and Mike came round, but decided that Cromwell was the happening place to be so were last seen heading in that direction :) Hope they get back alright. Those crazy cutting edgers...

Ray, Shannon and Cattie decided that a game of Bohnanza was in order. I still can't figure out why this is so much fun to play... Shannon was taking things very seriously (usually an indicator that she likes a game) and Cattie did really well for a first game. And yes i was nicer this time.

Quotes of the game:
"If you give me coffee, I'll give you a wax"
"I'll give you poo for spew"

Final Tally
Ray - 30 gold
Cattie - 25 gold
Shannon - 25 gold

I am determined to have a full 7 player game by the end of the weekend. May not happen tomorrow due to Don's insta flatwarming (that was a great idea BTW, hope there are a few keen takers).
