Well, the service for Sunday is written. The ACTS (adoration, confession, thanksgiving and supplication) prayer, children's' address and sermon are all by my own fair hand. I've adapted a prayer I found on the This is church website. I must remember to bookmark that.
I even chose the hymns myself and only snuck in one of my favourites and it still, more or less, ties in with the theme. This is particularly impressive as I am not musical at all and tend to forget most hymns until I hear it being played! My hubbie was complaining though, I have managed to choose a hymn we haven't got typed up. He's one of the projectionists - all the hymns that have been used since my home church got the projector are saved and it wasn't there. Oops I'm sure I recognised it. That could be a bit embarrassing on Sunday when I don't have a clue how it goes!!!
I'm a bit worried about my sermon. It's okay, I think, but I don't think it's nearly as good as my last one. It being my home church, I think it'll be pretty unlikely anyone would say "That wasn't that good" or "You're last one was much better". Not that I'm complaining, but sometimes unbias comments are more helpful.
I know it being my home church they'll be on my side. I just hope I can convey what God need the congregations to hear. That's all I hope for.
Good Luck - I hope everything goes well!
