God
richly blessed the church and the team during the weekend.
The church’s minister was Rev Ivan McElhinney.
Following the weekend, he wrote in appreciation……
“How
can we in Glengormley ever express our thanks for the past weekend?
Truly
the Lord met with us in a very powerful way, and so many of our hopes
have been realised.
The
team’s contribution to the Lord’s movement among us, to the healing
of hurts, to the renewal of people’s spirits, to the restoration of
Jesus as Lord in the lives of individuals and the Church will remain
with us for a very long time to come.
Our
evening service was a very special time of praise and sharing for what
the Lord has done, and was rounded off with an informal communion which
was just lovely.
The
starting of home fellowship groups will provide the framework to nurture
all those who received a special touch from the Lord, as well as
opportunity for practical outreach to those members of our fellowship
who were not reached by the weekend, and to the wider community in
Newtownabbey.
So
please accept all our grateful thanks for your ministry and our very
best wishes for your further spiritual pilgrimage
Yours
in His service
Ivan
