Millom Community Fun Day

Despite what all the weather people said about today the weather was not bad.  Sarah and I along with the family travelled over to Millom to help them in their Fun Day organised by the church's in Millom.  We planned to do 3 magic shows and a slot with Gary.  We had a great time.  The first show was packed out with lots of children as well as adults.  Gary did his party piece by saying hello to everyone in the room as they gathered to watch and listen to a story, Sarah told the story of Jesus healing the blind man on the Sabbath.  We have done it as a school assembly lots of times since Easter.  This was followed by me telling the story of Peter walking on the water to Jesus.  I then took a rat trap and drew a rat on a piece of brown card, the trap snapped shut on the card rat and then I invited someone from the audience up to touch the trap once it was reset.  Having just seen it go off with a loud snap no-one was willing to do it eventually one man said he would and .... you need to see the trick.  But it is a good example of trust and faith.  So I told the audience that we should be like Peter and trust in Jesus and put our faith in Him.  Shows 3 and 4 followed with a Gospel message after each although the last show of the day was nearly all Gospel stuff.  A great day as enjoy by all.  Praise God.
