Double the inspiration

Sunday School, doctrine class and the Adult Bible Class all started again today after the very long holiday. Our Sunday School classes have shuffled about a bit and completely mutated in form now, with mine expanding from 4 at the end of last year (it doubled in size over the course of the year) to 8 at the beginning of this year. I'm pleased to say that Caleb is in my class now and he, along with several other chatterboxes, certainly adds some interesting flavour to the class. Continuing with our missions month, we watched a powerpoint presentation on the ministry of the Cubao Reformed Baptist Church in the Philippines - very inspiring. I twisted Danielle's arm into coming around in the afternoon again, so she joined us for a very strung-together meal of baked potatoes (some were homegrown) with cheese or pasta sauce, stir-fried veggies and frankfurters. It sounds better than it looked on the plate :) We started discussing lamp shades and the possibility of home-made ones as I've been wanting to do something for ages with two wooden bases which are sitting uselessly in the cupboard and eventually had a light-bulb moment with an idea for constructing a frame (many hands make light work). More on that in the next couple of days when I'm satisfied with the end result. Watched the second part of the Taliabo story in our afternoon service.
