I remember Graeme K told us this one time, We arent only the church of tomorrow but the church of today as well, and i think thats so evident when you look at the evening service, so many of us are involved whether that be just a small part like welcoming we are still involved which i think is really cool.

This is an idea that the minstry team have been kicking around for a while plus lots of folk whp have heard you guys speak from the front are up for this too, I won't mention names but they would be people who I would seriously respect for a start. Say to Graeme that a few of you are interested in doing this. We will planning the nitty gritty of the new years services too soon so if you guys have come forward willing to do this then I'm sure it won't be a problem getting i included fairly quickly in the service.
On another note to this subject, say you are inviting a friend to church for the first time, which service would you invite them to and what would you make sure they knew about our church before they came in?

yeah doowaa.gd idea.i wud prob invite a friend to the more informal service because if the person was kumin 2 church 4 da 1st time i dont think a traditional service would b 4 dem!!

It's hard to know for me sometimes. Part of me says that it's a great image for any new person to see lots of people together worshipping. But that would mean coming to the traditional service probably. Well certainly at the moment anyway. But then I also see the problems with there being too many people there as well. It could be overwhelming to a certain extent. But it's a nice problem to have.
We really could do with a lot of new faces in First. It would just give everybody a wee lift.
