Freakin' Rad! (possibly the best week ever)

Last week was the best week of 2008 so far (not bad eh?). In fact, it probably beats every week in 2007 as well.

On Sunday 6th January, in our already freezing church, with the temps in the minuses, our jet heater broke...... Pants.

Our boiler system has been broken since we moved in - and the estimated repair costs were between £15,000 and £30,000. Then Brian states from the front of church that we WILL have heat by the following Sunday..... Oh boy. We need to pray! Anyway.... a miracle happened that week and Brian has told the story really well on his blog, read it here. Here is a picture to tantalize you!



That my friends is Glorious, our wonderful boiler that is providing heat for our church, the temperature at our last service in the main sanctuary was 21 deg C! Freakin' Rad!

Did I mention it has been cold recently? Well all that cold combined with some Scottish wet-ness resulted in a whole heap of snow falling on our beloved mountains. So on my day off on Friday, Wade and Stephen and I went up to Glencoe to do some skiing, and this is what greeted us there (click on the pictures below to see bigger versions.... you really gotta click the bottom one!)




It was an incredible day, the whole mountain was covered in powder snow which was all untouched. The first few runs of the morning were fresh tracks and seriously, if heaven is anything like this then I will be a happy man.

Last week was good, God blessed the church by showing that He continues to provide for His people against all odds. We were blessed with seeing the wonder of His creation first hand and enjoying it. It's weeks like this that just leave me lost in wonder.

All glory to God on high
