God welcomes me to Ghana

I could not have imagined what was ahead of me this morning. I had rung to check what time the service started, but in my search yesterday afternoon, I couldn't find the Dominion Centre where KICC meet, so at 8:20am I called again and was given enough info to get there for the 8:30am start.

Inside a warehouse, was what looked like 800 plastic chairs and a stage. Then it all happened. If you think we'll only sing hymns in heaven - you had better change your mind really quickly. The whole service was full of a sound I've only ever imagined. The harmonies and power in the music was indescribable. The smiles on peoples faces, they just love Jesus, there's now coersion, no whipped up emotion....contagious. Dancing, clapping, swaying...

The warehouse was hot, fans whirled from the ceilings and from the walls, I had my water to keep hydrated and I'm exhausted now, but what a morning, 3.5 hour service that felt like 30 minutes. Way to go God!

For me the privilege was that I was the only white face in the middle of over 500 people.

And some people complain that an hour and a half service is too long! That sounds simply awsome!

'Safehouse' bbq was a lot of fun! - great food, waterfight and a great game (that I was very bad at, I might add). We had a good service this morning too, not quite a 500-strong congregation, yet.

God is with you indeed.

Patrick.
