Sunday at the Hall

Yesterday was special for us in that we were visited by the Lancelot family from Skelmanthorpe.

Brother Tim posted this comment on the blog but in case you missed it this is what he wrote, "Hi there! My family and I are looking forward to being with the Christians at Durham Road Gospel Hall to remember the Lord Jesus in the Breaking of Bread tomorrow.This will also be the first time I will be with you to share the good news of God's free salvation. I hope you can be there in the evening - I'm hoping to give an audio visual presentation on what the Bible says about God's greatness.This will be at the usual time of 6:30 - great to see you if you can make it.Tim, Rachael, Nathanael (9), Priscilla (7), Samuel (6 today!)" Rachael's mother was with us too.

Brother Tim's Gospel presentation [with the help of Powerpoint - uninformed critics who claim that Brethren Assemblies do not use modern communication tools please note!] was firmly grounded in Scripture. Here are the references:

"Behold God is Great..." Job 36 26
  • Deut. 10 17 The Giver of the Law
  • Ezra 5 8 The Resident of His house
  • Nehemiah 8 5-6 The Subject of His Word
  • Psalm 95 3 The King over all
  • Proverbs 26 10 The Creator of all
  • Daniel 2 45 The Guide to the future
  • Titus 2 13 Our Saviour
  • Rev. 19 17 The Judge of all the earth

We continue to pray for Iris that she may fully recover and for Terry and the family at this difficult time. We also remember Peter as he waits on a date for a hip replacement operation.

Thank you LORD for your goodness to us.

A date for your diary

On Saturday 24th July Stephen and Gill Davis who have been working for the Lord in the Tanzanian capital Dar es Salaam for several years will be visiting us at the Gospel Hall. Stephen will give a report at 4pm and will minister the Word of God after tea (6pm). He will also share the Gospel on the following day. We pray for their safety whilst travelling and for the Lord's help for Stephen during his time of preparation.
