FIRST OF ADVENT SERVICE

I invited my friend Mohammad to come with me to this beautiful service which is poetry, music and readings from the Bible.  The choir sang like angels and the two soloists brought even more beauty to the already wonderful event. The congregation sang  both in German and in English which was wonderful.

A collection was taken at the service and a fair bit of money was raised and this was gifted to the Living Rock across the street which is a youth ministry.

As is usual, people were invited downstairs for  refreshments and they outdid themselves in the hospitality and generosity shown.  Scrumptious cakes and cookies, sandwiches, tea and coffee were served.

We walked back along James North and parted company where the bus stop was.  A very nice time and one I really look forward to each year.  Mohammad enjoyed himself as well which is nice.
