Heart and Skill Day 1

The first day was well received by the people that came from the eight churches represented. The theme of the day was around 'Releasing Heaven's song'. In the afternoon we broke into practical activations as people shared spontaneous song and what they felt God was saying through the worship and the word. Many felt a release in their spirits to go back into the local context. One of the delegates drew an art picture of a flower in bud and felt the word 'cultivate' was a relevant word for Heart and Skill this year, as we desire to cultivate the spirtual gifts especially prophecy to benefit the Church. I have already been encouraged by the release of creativity through poetry and song which was expressed on the day and following the day. I am looking forward to all that God has instore for day two when we explore the theme of 'alignment for your divine assignment' and ' aligning our emotions in worship'. - Alison Key
