What makes it exciting?
Every year, churches gather for an overnight prayer, that some call "2 years prayer". The idea is to thank God for the year that has passed, and to ask Him to lead us in the year that has come. There's lots of singing, lots of dancing, inspiring preaching, and just a lot of fun!
New Year's day was spent with some friends' families who gathered to spend the day together. And what is a family party without cake?
Why do we love New Years in Pader? Because it's all about God and His glory, and hope for greater things! Is Pader a perfect place? Far from it! But realizing our need for God and making a commitment to live out the year for Him is the first step to change.
Would it be that all our years to come would start in such a way!
