Tomorrow preaching on Peter's description of Jesus

from Acts 3. He describes him as:

Isaiah's suffering servant
Moses' predicted prophet
David's klimactic king
Abraham's covenant seed

(isn't it a good thing that I can't do alliteration in French!)

Today is the Great English Class Christmas Extravaganza. It falls right in the middle of exam season so we hope and pray God will bring those he wants to be there.

And next year I hope that we will think seriously about the timing..

The whole Davey family will be there (tramstrike, parking and ailments permitting!) and I will talk about two Christmas carols - the one a setting of Isa 9:2 - 7, so I'll talk about Isaiah's promised child, and the other "While shepherds watched", which I hope we will sing together.

Hurrah! The tramstrike is lifted! Now all we need is healthy children...

We did sing "While shepherds watched", and there was a special prize for one bold chinese chap who read out pretty well, "Thus spake the seraph and forthwith appeared a shining throng of angels praising God who thus addressed their joyful song." I find that a mouthful.
