Even though we still can’t meet together, spend some time this week praying for each other. It will be wonderful when things finally get back to normal. Pray too for opened eyes as you read your Bible this week. Just is the Lord trying to tell you?
Thank you for joining us for what is an unusual way of “doing” church. We trust that the online service offered here will truly bless you, and that after this virus has passed, you will be able to join us as we resume our normal services and activities. In spite of what is going on at the moment, this is a time for personal growth and getting closer to God, and so our prayer is that you and your family will know Him and His great peace, in all things. This is our final week in our Wednesday series on “Guarding your heart” and Clive Bennett who is one of our members is talking on the important subject of “Following the heart of God”.
Oh let my love with fervour burn, and from the world now let me turn;
Living for Thee, and Thee alone, bringing Thee pleasure on Thy throne;
Only one life, “’twill soon be past, only what’s done for Christ will last.
Only one life, yes only one, now let me say, “Thy will be done”;
And when at last I’ll hear the call, I know I’ll say “twas worth it all”;
Only one life, “’twill soon be past, only what’s done for Christ will last. ”

Welcome to this morning’s worship service – which is slightly different! Today a few persons from the church are contributing to the service order. May God bless you through their contributions. Today, of course, is also Father’s day. So please give thanks to our heavenly Father for the fathers in our church. God bless. Simon
Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
Ephesians 3:20-21
This week my Bible reading reminded my that we need to make time to stop and simply remember the goodness and faithfulness of God in our lives. It is so easy to forget what an amazing God we have.
Welcome

‘“In that day you will say: “I will praise you, LORD. Although you were angry with me, your anger has turned away and you have comforted me. Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD, the LORD himself, is my strength and my defence; he has become my salvation. With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.’” Isaiah 12v1-3
This week please pray for a fresh release of God’s Holy Spirit upon ABC.
“Father, please pour out your Spirit and bring revival to your church at Aldwick, to the local community and to each one of your family here at ABC.”

Living Lord Jesus please take me as you find me with all my fears and failures and fill my life again. I give my life to follow everything that I believe in and now surrender. Shine your light and let the whole world see that I’m living for the glory of the risen king. AMEN
Here’s a thought – Why not ask God to give you an opportunity to share the Gospel with someone new this week? Pray for it. Prepare for it. Go for it!
