A cake has been delivered to The Dock… a birthday cake to be eaten tomorrow. \u00a0But whose birthday is it?
\n\"IMG_0409\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hard to believe, but it’s the first birthday of our Sunday night services – which began on board SS Nomadic on the first Sunday of November 2013<\/a>. \u00a0Since then we’ve enjoyed hearing stories, testimonies and inspiration from all sorts of people from all sorts of backgrounds; we’ve sung together hymns both old and new; we’ve prayed for and given thanks for The Dock in more ways than I can count.<\/p>\n

We’ve had a number of ‘firsts’ in our Sunday night services as well; back in February, we introduced our two first-ever Dock staff members, James and Joachim<\/a>; in June, we redefined the whole Dock story (see It’s not a boat – it’s an umbrella<\/a>); and last month, the neighbours of The Dock, the Mace and the Nomadic celebrated the Titanic Quarter’s first-ever baptism<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And of course we’ve moved just next door… for the last few months we’ve been holding our Sunday evenings amongst the squashy sofas and cosy corners of Dock Cafe while the coffee brews in the background…

So – join us this Sunday (2nd November) at 6pm in Dock Cafe \u00a0to share in that cake, that coffee and that incredible story… a new church forming amongst the friends and neighbours who find this strange, wonderful pop-up cafe to be their home.<\/p>\n

We’ve even got our Sunday Nights a birthday present… after a few months of my not-overly-artistic signs for the door, which were beginning to scale a whole new universe of scrappiness, we’ve finally got a proper sign! \u00a0So see you at a proper Sunday Night at The Dock:<\/p>\n
