Lakeside Magic

We ended our 12th year at Lakeside Primary today with a thanksgiving service that was just for us. As I sat watching great kids perform and as I got a lump in my throat as teachers spoke of the impact we have had, I thought of all the preaching we have done there. The very first time was back in 99 when our sound system fell and smashed on the floor! That didn't stop us and hundreds of messages later we are still there. Why? Cos we love those kiddies and we love Jesus. There little eyes just watch us and they are so cute. The gospel is preached and the truth is that some have accepted Jesus as Lord and Saviour. So many teachers still there and faithful Mrs J who this year was made principal. So great to see the changes already and as Joanne said, there is a magic at Lakeside than we have seen no where else. They know how to be hospitable. They know how to develop the right tone, and most of all the favour of God is all over the place.
2011 ... we will be back!
