Patio Church



Had a cool experience with some dear friends that have been staying with us. Lots of time spent visiting around the table, doing crossword puzzles, playing cards, eating and catching up. But when Sunday morning rolled around a corporate decision was made to stay home and do church out on the back patio.
So sweet to pull out my guitar and sing old worship songs. Even if I was almost the only one singing - this new generation isn't so familiar with the golden oldies... And the golden oldies are Vineyard songs - not even the old hymns or anything.
But what a blessings to sit under the umbrella with summer breezes rustling in the leaves of the trees surrounded by the bright flowers that have survived the summer heat.


Sharing scriptures, praying, singing, a small devotional read by Steve and communion.
Ah, the glory of communion.
Sharing the bread and the wine - the body and the blood of our precious Jesus.
Who, for the joy set before Him endured the cross.
We are the joy that was set before Him!!!
And now He is our joy unspeakable and forever!
