Barbeque Night

-


Disciples at Nagercoil kindled up some intense fire yet again, but this time for the sake of barbeque. The red hot pieces of coal reminded disciples of the love that can be stirred up when children of God live together and the black pieces that fell off brought memories of what happens when we move away from God. The entire evening was filled with fun, games, fellowship, love and of course, food.

Dear Christ lovers, Cricket lovers gathered for an exciting day of  showcasing their in depth cricket talent on the Day of 77th  Independence of our country India.  It is always exciting and fascinating to talk about cricket to our talented cricketing disciples in our family of churches. August 15th was an awesome and an incredible day where the Dindigul church in South Tamil Nadu organized a 4 team Tennis ball Cricket Tournament in Don Bosco seminary center ground. It is so patriotic to start the event with India Flag hoisting & singing National Anthem. A  short message  from the  Bible -  Galatians 5:1 on freedom in Christ shared to take the event more uplifting to each other.  Disciples teams from Nagercoil, Erode, Madurai and the host Dindigul combining  Theni participated and showed their power packed players performance with sky rocketing sixes which left many in a shock to witness such a spirited games.

I have been contemplating the connection between praying together and unity for a couple of weeks.  It cannot be a coincidence that, right after instructing his disciples how they should resolve a dispute between church people, he tells them this: “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” (Matthew 18:19–20) Why is the most explicit passage on Jesus’ desire for unity part of his prayer in John 17? The disciples were there. I imagine they are praying with him, not just hanging out nearby. We do not have a record of what their prayer-response was, if any, but that incident coupled with the text in Matthew 18, as well as the many examples in Acts leads me to surmise that praying together is an essential part of maintaining true Christian unity.
