Yay! We started our house church services!

Well, I guess what I mean is we started them 'officially'. We have been having house church with our family for over a year now. But, having just moved to a new house last September (you wonder why lately my posting has been so sporadic!) and having a baby due in just 11 days, we did not feel ready to have others join us. But now we have placed our house church on the house2house house church locator (though they will not update it for a week or so). And have been feeling free to invite others. We have read, not too long ago, about how Saul was looking for his donkeys and went to see Samuel the prophet to ask his help. When he arrived, the Lord let Samuel know that he was to anoint Saul king over Israel. Samuel told Saul that he was expected and that a place of honor was reserved for him at a banquet table! We talked about how we should all be ready for the unexpected visitor and that, even though we may not think someone might come on a particular Sunday, or Saturday night, God may be sending them to us. So we started having the food prepared, making sure we were all dressed appropriately and that we were ready to pull out extra seats and dishes. We also started outlining what we do on a separate blog Friendsville House Church . So here we go...!
