WHen we start new ventures in Ministry / fresh expressions, how do we measure its success, how long do we run it, when do we realise its time to stop. This is where we are with CAFE CHURCH. our new sunday evening service that we started last May.
When i am asked about Cafe Church, one of the first Question i am asked is " HOW MANY PEOPLE COME", and when i tell them the low numbers each week, sometimes nil i see the dissapointment in their eyes.
Is it a FAILURE? No i tell people that ask me about stories of all the number of people i have spoken through Cafe and its promoton - i would say its a SUCCESS. Its highlighted to the community that St Bart's is back in business trying to be at the centre of society and sharing the love of Jesus in all that we do 24/7.
So now that only 2 people come , speradically turn up to Cafe do we change time or day of the service? change the venue? re promote or stop it altogether?
I ask for prayer on making the right decision, and remember all things have a season. a time to help us learn and move on to the next part of the journey.
