It was good to be back in Childs Hill last Lord's Day. In many ways it was typical, with a large morning congregation of around 30 in the morning and a much smaller congregation come the evening. In the morning I preached on Matthew 7:12, as we continue through the Sermon on the Mount. In the evening I preched a one off from Isaiah 64:6. There were visitors in the morning, mostly old friends and in the evening, a Tamil family from Sri Lanka who are professing Christians and who, like other refugees, are living in the nearby hotel. I hope we see them again soon. One feature of the morning service was an almost complete absence of our Iranian friends. The one there is a young man who has recently gained his asylum )he is the last of our current crowd to do so). Several others had taken advantage of the Bank Holiday and goe away, I guess.
