After a wonderful, touching send off, from the lovely congregation at Giggs Hill this morning. Where it was so encouraging to see the seeds of new life, in a blossoming partnership with River Church Orpington, that we're praying will be accepted and blessed by the wider church.(I'm so sorry we were having such a great time I have no pics...😮) We could hardly believe, this will be the last time we will meet at Heronsgate School before we leave. The room still festooned from the leaders' party, a hue of party sparkle still on the floor, despite the wonderful John, the Premises Manager's best sweeping efforts, looked like a cloud of blessing had been 'showered' upon us
There was such a sense of the presence of God, as we prayed and anointed the congregation and God's Holy Spirit was visibly touching, healing and empowering them. It was such a privilege, we will truly miss these precious people and moments like this.
West Thamesmead Community Church will be setting up their 'tent' in different places over the next few weeks. In a park for our annual Community BBQ, that's usually held at school. On Zoom, whilst thirty of us, are literally 'in tents' at Limitless Youth Festival. In our garden (an extra on Saturday 10th August for believers' baptisms) and together with Charlton URC, in what will now be a united final, service, on 11th August at 10.30am. The following two weeks locations, are to be confirmed, but WTCC will probably be at Charlton URC.

We will truly miss the beautiful, faithful and loving people, the Holy Spirit inspiring unity (Koinonia) in the amazing Church God has planted here and are so excited to see what God has planned for them and us, in the coming years. Praise God, he is good and will be with us all, in the adventures to come ❤️ 🙏
