What has a Wedding, Maggie, and Hillsongs in Common?

I didn't realise that I haven't posted anything for nearly a week. Well later on today we'll be making history in St Andrew's. We're going to have a wedding as part of the service. One of our elders Lesley Stewart will be getting married. Its going to be a grand occasion. I believe quite a few of the congregation will be wearing kilts.It will also be a bit of a sad occasion because we will be making a presentation to Maggie Lane. Maggie has been my probationer minister for the past 14 months. We're all missing her around the church. Anyway tomorrow we're going to dedicate this wee movie to Maggie. And as if all this is not enough we're delighted that we're going to have Kevin and Marlyn Brett with us for the day. Kevin has kindly agreed to preach tomorrow evening. Ken was one of the senior pastors at Hillsongs in Australia, and i believe he is just about to take up a new challenge with a new congregation after being Brian Houston's right hand man for around ten years.

I wanted to thank you and say how how much I had enjoyed sharing fellowship at St Andrew’s Church on Sunday morning - it was a very special service - the wedding, the readings - Maggie’s farewell and meeting Kevin and Marlyn.  Also to thank you for the kindness and love shown to Lorna.

Every blessing

I agree with you jackie it was a good day. Like you I was delighted to feel the presence of the Lord in the service. there was a great atmosphere. I feel privileged to be still the minister of this congregation after all these years. So many of you have been a blessing to me and your one of the Jackie

Today was one of the best days I have had since joining St Andrews.  Watching Lesley and Ron marry was wonderful and I wish them every blessings on their life together,  I always believe that the butterfly that flies around St Andrews is the Holy Spirit revealing himself and he was there today.  Another highlight was my neice Megan hanging a cross on the Christmon tree,  this means so much to myself and my mum Jean as we can see the Lord working through Megan and reaching our family.  To finish off we had the priveledge of listening to Kevin from Hillsongs in Australia,  his sermon on friendship really touched me and it was a lesson learned for me to be selfless to be a truly good friend.  All in all a great day,  Praise the Lord. Amen
