On a ship, the Captain's Table is a place of honour for those that are sailing.
While dining with Angela & I isn't anything special, once a quarter we invite new people to come and have a meal. The point is to give them the chance to talk with us one-on-one, ask any questions they have, provide information about our church and honour them for choosing to worship with us.
Yesterday, with the help of Judith, we had lunch with Joe, Harry, Clara, Shaun, Victor, Steve and Carolyn - and heaps of kids. We would also have had Rebecca, Rose, Jim and Val if they had all been well.
To have such a great group is a reflection on the welcoming nature of the Corps and the number of people that are interested in joining us as disciples of Jesus Christ.
