Yesterday was a neat day at church for several reasons...
For the first time in many years, I didn't take any extra medication before heading out to church. Which meant that, after church, I was able to stay awake and spend the day out with Vania and Lucas.
We also had a communion service centered around communion, with no sermon. We had a ten minute (Rob Bell) video clip, followed by a two or three minute explanation and the celebration of communion together. (If you're not familiar with Rob Bell, he's one of my favourite preachers.
Everyone also walked away with a bouncy ball as a connection to a spiritual truth. We kept the children in the service (cause I thought they would get it). Later in the afternoon, I asked Lucas about it, and he thought the video was boring, but when I asked him what the point of it was, he got it! One out of two isn't bad, but the next time I need to make sure it's 2 out of 2.
Great time together. There were more things, our prayer and praise time was awesome. But I'll leave it that for now.

But no, I didn't preach.
I did have a 3-5minute object lesson before communion...but not the usual talk.
