MY CHURCH

My church is no ordinary church and when i say church ,just forget about the bible and what goes on in the real church. mine is neither related to the one you know, its only similar in rituals. i have been a member since 2002,but lately i have become a pastor and am looking foward to the post of reverend (somebodyy say AMEN)i need not to wait till sunday to attend my mass but so long as i have some offertory in my pocket and a chapel is near by, my sabbath day has come.
sometimes my sabbath day can last a whole week, thats when i want maximum blessings and i have lots of money to offer to my devotion. my best worship day though is furahi day jioni, actually when i miss friday evening mass i make sure i go for a kesha the following saturday, which means visiting various churches the whole night for maximum utility (blessings)

During the busy weekdays i usually hold bible study meetings with my fellow christians where after afew one,two, we have a group sermon where every body whohas been touched by the word shares from their heart.at this time the blessings are so much that the most embarrassing experiences are shared, i call it kufungua roho.
some times it can get ugly/beautiful depending on your level of being touched (by the gospel) when some of the members of the congregation try to outdo each other in kufungua roho. at this time it occurs to me (the pastor) that i have to intervene by leading a hymn which goes like this

eva since i came to know thy gospel
my life has changed, coz i no longer attend
morning clsses coz the spirit of the gospel has not left me
i have stopped saving inorder to give to god
what belongs to him, but of all things i am happy
coz soon my liver is going to snap and live happily eva after

As has happened since time immerial, devoteesof the gospel have been persecuted world over. Remember apul (of the real gospel)i have been persecuted and even stigmatized, but i know am just here on earth for a short time, my joys is in heaven. iwill not be slowed down by any threats coz as the gospel says many wil be called but only a few will be picked.
Miracles do happen in my church. after all the gospel is kinda real.i remember this christmas in 2004, when i lead my congregation to a 3 day mission in my rural area , we were xperiencing a budget deficit, but after the first day and night of heavy prayers we were able to secure enough funding such thst our mission extended to new year.

i can share a lot about my gospel but as we always say in my church the fewer the congregation the better coz we enjoy more gospel without the fear of it ending b4 we get possed.
today am happy that more pple are being touched by the gospel, more so after the lowering of the offertory requirement an most premium gospel.i can only call upon non believers to come and taste the gospel coz as they say the sweetness of the pudding is in the eating and happy are those who sit on pins coz they shall surely arise and proclaim.
