Bryn Haworth Service - 8 May 2011

Following his Saturday night evening of Gospel Blues and country rock at the Craigiebield Hotel, acclaimed slide guitarist and singer songwriter Bryn Haworth led the evening service at St. Mungo's on Sunday 8th May. Members of the five churches in Penicuik, and passing visitors experienced an uplifting service mixed with songs and readings.

Supported by Graham McDonald and Andrew Dunsire, two of St. Mungo's own musically talented members, Bryn played a number of gospel songs, with the congregation becoming more and  more actively involved.

Bryn presented an excellent sermon, based on God is good, whatever the circumstances. When things go wrong we should think of the good times that God has given us, to see us through the bad times.  His analogy of what he called the "yeahbut" response used by us all from time to time when asked to go forth and do something. "Yeah but you do that, not me". How often did Jesus hear that from his Disciples and followers? "You do that, not me!" he would hear. But we all can if we try, through our own God given talents that each and every one of us have been given.

A time for companionship over a cup of tea completed a fantastic evening with Bryn.

We hope he will return to visit us again in the future.

Thanks to; Graham McDonald (piano), Andrew Dunsire (guitar), and Gordon McGregor (sound engineer)
