Volunteers for the Kingdom

This past weekend I experienced Church in a cinema. One big plus was the seats. They certainly were much more comfortable than the brown plastic ones we use at MKCC. Another plus is that they have a video screen to die for.

I learned loads but one thing that struck me more than anything else was the volunteers. Every week a huge team of volunteers arrive at 7.30 am and transform the space into a church. Everything and I mean everything is brought in. Then a few hours later everything is put back in the box. Did I say that these guys do it every week. One of the guys who had been loading in since 7.30 then sang in the band then loaded out again.

Here is a little video I put together of the morning.
