I think it’s fair to say that no Sunday morning service at MBC is ever what you might call quiet or straight forward. Besides all the traditional elements there’s very often a mission slot, or our children come back in to share what they’ve all been up, sometimes we have a visiting preacher or maybe some weeks just an up date on one of our many and varied projects. Sunday May 20th, however, was even busier than normal.
This was because after a shortened service (one hour, five including Communion) we held the second of our special open Church Meetings.
On the agenda this time was the election or reappointment of deacons, confirmation that Howard Dews is to be our GDPR guru and the latest news on our ongoing search for a new youth worker. Then, an hour later it was time for the top side of a hundred of us to share lunch.
The gallery below shows a selection of images taken on the day. This includes pictures of a splendid new “stained glass” window, specially designed and built for Pentecost by Kate Slater, our two new deacons – Paul Smith and Phil Laws and a shot taken in the lounge showing what some of our kids were doing during our meeting.
So there you have it, Sunday May 20th, just another day in the eventful life of Moortown Baptist Church. Fortunately everything ran smoothly even if it was a bit of a struggle getting everything cleared away before it was time for Shona and Graham to clock on again, this time to lead a 4pm Tea Service.
