Catching up on our sermon series in the book of Daniel

As well as livestreaming our Sunday Morning Worship Service via the YouTube channel "Artful Stampin", we also continue to record the sermons for uploading to our Welshpool Community Church profile on Soundcloud.  

Below is the recording from last Sunday (11th):

Sunday Morning In-Person Worship Service, livestreamed on 4th July

We've continuing to hold regular, in-person worship services on Sunday mornings at 10:30am in the United Church building on New Street.  It's great that regulations now allow us to sing together (although we still keep masks on) and that we can have fellowship in the church garden after the service.

Last Sunday, I taught from the Old Testament book of Daniel, chapter 8, in which we're given more specific details about some of the kingdoms that were dreamt about earlier in the book.  Just like a jigsaw, we can put the pieces together to get an overall picture of what God was making known, and we learn that, within the vision of Daniel, there is also a message to us.

Sunday Morning IN-PERSON Worship Service, livestreamed 13th June 2021

Last Sunday 13th June, we held our first in-person Sunday Morning Worship Service since lockdown began over a year ago!  We've hired the United Church building in town, as they are currently not holding any meetings on a regular basis.

Below is a video of the service, which we livestreamed on YouTube.  We thank God for an uplifting time together.  As the weather was dry, we ended the service by going into the church garden to sing before having a more informal time of socially-distanced fellowship and mutual encouragement.

We're planning to continue meeting in the United Church building on Sunday mornings at 10:30am on a regular basis until the Lord provides something more long-term.

Sunday Morning Worship Service, 6th June 2021

During our worship service on Sunday, we spent time looking at the book of Daniel chapter 5 and found an example of what Jesus once described:

Matthew 13:12: "For to the one who has, more will be given, and he will have an abundance, but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away."

Below is the full service that was livestreamed on YouTube, in which we also have communion in remembrance of the death of Jesus Christ for us.

Sunday Morning Worship Service, livestreamed on 23rd May 2021

We livestream our Morning Worship Services every Sunday at 10:30am via our church Facebook page. We also livestream via YouTube, as this gives a lot of people the option to watch on a bigger screen, such as a Smart TV.

However, we don't have enough subscribers on our church's YouTube channel to livestream using a mobile phone, so we use another channel called "Artful Stampin", a paper crafting channel run by Ruth Magness (the pastor's wife).

Below is a link to watch last Sunday's livestreamed worship service on YouTube.  You'll also find a playlist of all of our previous Sunday services on the Artful Stampin YouTube channel.

A Midweek Message: A Fatal Mystery (Daniel pt. 3)

How can someone remain calm in a crisis?  

In Daniel chapter 2, a mystery becomes an emergency when human power and knowledge are ineffective.  However, while others are panicking, Daniel exhibits prudence (being calm and wise), prayer (trusting God to help) and praise (in response to God's mercies).  

In this message, we consider how we can respond in the same way if we have the same faith as Daniel.
