Dear friends,
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to go to church in the dark? Probably not something that's crossed your mind recently or ever. Well this week I got to experience it! We turned up for Wednesday night Bible Study only to be met at the door by a little 5 year old girl telling us that the church was having a blackout in other words no electricity at all. Nonetheless church wasn't cancelled, we went to the sanctuary and were we had worship and a time of prayer. It was really strange sitting in almost complete darkness and to be honest it felt kinda strange but hey, there is first time for everything and that was first church-in-the-dark experience.
Last night (Friday) Whitney and I went over to a friends house for dinner. Her name is Arlene and she was Whitney's roommate during Spring School at Capernwray but unfortunately she left today (Saturday) to move to Georgia to be with her husband (he's in the military). So we went over to say goodbye and hang out with her and Cam and Laura, while we were there Arlene introduced us to the wonderful world of the Rainstick. Now I don't know how many of you know what a rainstick is but the name pretty much sums it up. It's a big stick that has thorns and stones on the inside which when turned sounds like the rain only it kinda messes with your ears- almost like your senses can't quite figure out what's going on...it's kinda trippy! But anyway I was impressed at Arlene's gifting of using this rainstick that I decided it was worth blogging about.
Much Love,
Andrew
