Diary of a Church Planter - new church, first Christmas

The first Christmas Sunday event with our new friends at Bridge Church Newbury was a Walk Through Nativity. Beverley choreographed a fun and poignant morning. Lots of folk dressed up. Phoebe LS did a great job interspersing scenes with carols and worship. Silent Night with the lights down low...wow. We also had our new neighbours round - 10 households. It was standing room only as friendships were renewed and new ones made. Christmas Day was special too with a surprising number of guests and visitors - great Christmas worship with our news friends. Well worth the complicated negotiations with the school. New church, first Christmas - great fun.
