the christmas spirit seems to have all worn off, though recently i received some photos following an event i helped out with back in december.
on a typically british cold tuesday, i had the opportunity to take part in helping out at cafe eterno, the cutest cafe in covent garden run by the london city mission, a christian organisation.
the aim of this evening was to share the gospel and good news of jesus over hot drinks and cookies with friends and strangers passing by. we also set up a stall outside the cafe, battled the cold and challenged the public to hand out a free hot drink to another stranger on the streets, as it is "more blessed to give than to receive" (our motto of the evening).
it was such a beautiful evening singing and performing christmas carols and other songs with my sister and friends. filled with laughter and joy in this little corner in london, the true meaning of christmas was shared.
feel free to visit the cafe and the friendly people who serve there. also find out more about the soho outreach team who aims to spread the love of God in the heart of london here.
