What God is doing is...

Saved on 03/07/2008

The last five weeks at the 6.30pm service have been a real blessing for many.  Time to worship and hear from God and respond to what the Holy Spirit is doing with us.  And to enjoy a great cup of coffee and piece of cake too!  Praise and glory to God for his grace and thanks to the...
