Sunday 20th January 2019

Aleida Van Der Flier presented  the sermon and answered the questions we posed earlier in the week being "What is the Kingdom of Heaven / Kingdom of God ?" and "Did you ever wonder why Jesus began his ministry in Galilee rather than in Jerusalem ?"

Aleida showed the children a video of how Jesus presented himself to the fisherman and told them to return to the water and try again for the catch that they so needed. He showed them that they could trust him and that he would provide for their every need. 

They returned to the water and were soon pulling in their nets laden with so many fish that they had never before caught. They instantly knew that Jesus was more than just another man who appeared in their lives.

He told them to leave everything and go into the country and become "fishers of men" where they would be "fishing" for people to join the church and follow God.

This was the beginning of his recruitment of His 12 Apostles.   

​After the video Aleida called on a member of the congregation to do the weekly bible reading.
The reading given was from Matthew 4: 12-19
