Breakdancing At Church???!!!.....Whatever Next??!!

Today at church was a Visitors Sunday and Hog Roast; an opportunity for church members and regulars to invite along friends and family who have never been to church before or maybe interested to know more.
One of the pastors, Lewis, spoke about the Uncovered Course which starts next week and is well worth going along to if you want to know more about Jesus etc.
Anyway, what a great turnout it was. We normally total about 400 to 500 people at a normal Sunday service but today there must've been about 800 there which was great to see.
The hog roast was delicious ( I had seconds!!!!) and thankfully all in a walk through marquee as the weather turned sour as predicted.
The entertainment back inside church was very good too; a Dixie Jazz Band and Illumination Breakdance Crew who were fab. This is one of the crew members demonstrating his amazing skills. I took loads of photos but made the stupid decision of just using the sport mode and this is the only one that is just about in focus! I'm guessing this is because of poor lighting and the flash doesn't fire in sport mode? Any ideas would be greatly received. I have still so much to learn.
Today was also a perfect opportunity to chat at length with those folk in the church who have become real good friends and have been there for us in the very difficult times that, as a family, we have been experiencing. We've only been going to the church for just short of 18 months and it has felt like home from the moment we stepped through the door. Its such a shame that many churches are not like this at all.
Sadly, the weather had turned even more sour by the time we left Newport, so much so, the heating is now on at home!!!! Autumn is finally here me thinks!
