It was time for another meal with 6pm.
After the service we enjoyed fellowship over a meal of potato & leek or chicken & vegetable soup with garlic bread and for dessert home made ice cream or cheese cake or both.
When was the last time you had a meal with someone from church?

40hr famine
The 40hr famine was on over the weekend. St Mark's had a bunch of young people involved. They went without: food, talking & furniture.
We met a girl Sami from Kenya who was 8 years old. It's hard to believe & take in how she lives each day.
I asked the people who were going without furniture what they were going to do when they finished their 40hrs. Jump on their bed, lie on the couch & other things.
Unfortunately people like Sami don't get the luxury to make that choice.
Prayer:
Awesome God, help me to give generously towards the work of World Vision. Give me a heart for people who are struggling in other countries. Amen

prayer
I was really encourage at our 6pm service last night. We had an open prayer time where anyone could pray out loud about anything or choose a prayer point that was written on the white board. The first 3 prayers where by 2 grade 6's & a grade 4, people I've been teaching at Sunday School over the last year & a half.
After the service I prayed with another lady for one of our people who has a bad back at the moment, we even had a bit of oil action - See James 5:13-16 for our framework.
Prayer
God help me to come to you in prayer for every part of my life. Amen
