Donabate Presbyterian Church met on Sunday morning for the first time this past Sunday (12th September).
After eight months of preparing the ground, we gathered as a church family in Donabate Portrane Community Centre. It was a wonderful time to be together in Donabate worshipping God and learning from the Bible.
We are thankful to God for so many things: for a bright, modern Community Centre with loads of room and helpful staff; for a lovely church family atmosphere during the service and afterward over tea and coffee; for people who've been involved with us from the beginning, for others who have caught the vision for this new church community recently and for complete strangers who I had no idea would turn up! Please pray that God moulds us as a loving community; that Christians grow in the Lord and that many people in Donabate become Christians.
We're utterly humbled by God and His goodness and encouragement to us on this first Sunday.
