A Relaxing Sunday

This morning we went to church with Aaron, Erica and family. Their church meets in the auditorium of Rossland Academy. It is called The International Christian Fellowship. We felt very comfortable there as people were casually dressed just like at home!! The music was great and they had a worship team similar to ours. We sang two new choruses which were fabulous. Look out Scott and Brian!!! They also sang one that Shirley, Wendy, Denise and their group sang for us. It was a great reminder that we should be singing that one too!!
The message was from Mark 3: 7-34, where Jesus chose his 12 disciples. He spoke about Jesus wanting to have a relationship with us and out of that relationship flows service to others.
We then went to the River Cafe for lunch which is a favourite spot to eat for the residents here at Heart House. We now know why! It is an outdoor dining area opening onto beautiful gardens. The food was also excellent.
Home by 1:00! I don't think we have ever been home from a church service, and lunch too, by 1:00.....quite novel!!!!
We are using the afternoon to prepare for the upcoming workshops for the teachers. The first one is on Tuesday afternoon.
By the way, the weather here is once again, sunny and hot...in fact, very hot!! The low rainy season usually goes into December. However, we have not had any rain since our trip to Amboselli.
We enjoying receiving e-mails Thanks to all who have kept us up- to- date on the happenings at home! Our e-mail address is 2hepburns@rogers.com.
