carols by moonlight

After months of preparation, Carols by Candlelight was finally here. Though the Freo Doctor (Perth's nickname for the sea breeze - because it comes from the direction of Fremantle and brings relief from the heat during summer) came uninvited, and proceeded to make a nuisance of himself by blowing out our candles, and interfering with our already-dodgy P.A. equipment!!

But by the grace of God, many people came along to the event, with several new faces floating about. Yorkie and Mez did a great job MC-ing, the choir was good, and the skit? well... let's just say that we have room for improvement hehe.

The most important thing of all was that we were able to remind people of the reason for the Christmas season - Jesus! As well as show some good-old-BPCWA-hospitality by providing them with a free feed and some friendly fellowship!

I really like it when our church does stuff like this... How everyone works together to make things work is always an encouragement to my heart! I just pray that the end result was glorifying to God and that the testimony of our church will continue to shine brighter.

Praise and thank God for the smooth conclusion of the CBC. Praise God too for the many lessons you guys have learnt through the NYC. I've indeed missed out on two very important events! =(
But i thank God for seeing all of you through these few months of intense preparations. Let us then continue to pray for the souls who have attended..that those who are unsaved will seek eternal salvation and for those saved, that they will seek for eternal spiritual growth!
ALL praise and glory to God!
