So, yesterday evening a large group of us congregated in a very old church building. The building has recently been given to us by the existing members who recognised that the time was right for a new group to begin a work based there. 

Despite the fact that it's very early days at the moment, it was so exciting to witness different Christians gathering as this adventure launches. 

Without God in the midst, it won't go anywhere - that's almost guaranteed. Without vision, prayers, leadership, finances and people - it won't go far. But last night more people gathered in that 300 year old building than has been seen there for a while, and looking around and listening to the prayers built on such faith, it's hard to not believe that this might just work!! 

With a well established sister-church nearby and mission fields like a night club literally 10 metres from the front door, I'm walking with a spring in my step this morning as I get lost daydreaming of what the community could one day look like. 

What an exciting adventure it most certainly will be.
