Welcome to online Wednesday break
As the early church grew, more people go involved.
Today we continue to look at some of the names we hear on Sundays. Just what were there stories?
The church has more than one meaning, but they are all about people gathered in a special place for worship and out in helping in the community. As the church we get to meet God but also get to-know so many others too.
Isaiah reminds us that
Like a shepherd God will tend his flock.
Thank God for we are his flock
Let us worship God
Let us pray
Acts 13:13
Paul and his companions set sail from Paphos. John Mark however left them an returned to Jerusalem.
Acts 15:36-39
Paul said to Barnabas, 'come let's vsist the believers in every city we proclaimed the word of the Lord and see how they are doing. Barnabas wanted to take John called Mark with them, but Paul decided not to take one who had deserted them and had not accompanied them in their work.
2 Timothy 4:11
Paul writes
Get Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful in my ministry.

Our church building in Spring
At the end of last year, Leonard said to me one Sunday that I should look forward to a surprise outside the church in late spring. Is this the surprise? Since we can't go into the building I thought you might like to see some pictures.
What thoughts of church and friends come to mind as you look at them?
Thank you Leonard and helpers.

Bible reading plan
oHere's a simple bible reading plan for the next few weeks taken from Janie Stuart's favourite Bible commentator-Dale Bruner. He calls it making a home with Jesus. (John 15). His suggestion is that we read a a book a month, reading a chapter a day and think about what we have read and what is happening in our lives. Since some books are have fewer chapters than days in the month, then you either get to have a few days holiday or spend time chewing over passages that caught your attention in that particular book.
His scheme for the next few months would be:
March: Luke 1-24
April: John 1-21
May: Acts 1-28
June: Romans: 1-16
We are part way through the gospel of Luke in the church so I would suggest the following:
March 22 to April 12 Luke 10 -24
April 13 to May 3: John 1-21
May: Acts 1-28 which would gets us back onto Dale's plan but let us read and reflect on the Easter story at Easter.
