The Countdown is on...

We are now into day 15 of our 21 day fast as a body of believers and it has really gone well so far. The grace of God is so evidently on this thing and it is wonderful to feel His sustaining power with you through the day.

There have been some encouraging stories throughout this time and I would like to share this one as we see ourselves joining God in His purposes for our city and nation.

During this time we have been encouraged to use the money we would normally spend on food to still buy food but then distribute it to the poor. See Isaiah 58:6-7. We really enjoyed going to Pick 'n Pay and loading a trolley to overflowing and knowing we were doing this for other people!

Our church has been distributing the food and clothes in the poorer areas of our city and this time Neville Chan, who leads a church plant in one of the townships, went to help deliver the food. Anyway a whole crowd had gathered and he kind of got to preach and God kind of rocked up and people kind of got saved! WAHOOO! So now we have walked through an open door into a new area of Duncan Village where bible study will be run twice a week.

God is good!
