This week we were privileged to be joined once again by Alan & Megan Barker, our BMS link missionaries who we support in their work in Nepal. They both share with us the latest updates on their work in that country and bring us the message for this week about what our calling is with God.

Lorraine makes her debut leading the rest of our service whilst Nick leads our sung worship.

This Sunday we welcome Alan & Megan Barker who the church has supported as missionaries for 25 years through BMS. Alan gives us an update on some of the projects that they have been working on in Nepal over the last couple of years, particularly in the area of disaster relief and Megan’s calling as an occupational therapist. Megan then speaks on the outpouring of the Spirit through spiritual gifts, reminding us that God gives gifts generously, equally and freely and not to see ourselves as any more or less deserving of those gifts than others.

Chris leads the rest of the service as we think about the ascension of Jesus into heaven whilst Mike leads our sung worship.

Note: a small portion of the service and sermon has been trimmed to preserve the privacy and safety of some of those that Alan and Megan work with and live amongst in Nepal.
