PUB RESTORED INTO A CHURCH - Salem Danville, Pretoria, South Africa

FROM PUB TO CHURCH

Salem Danville's first service was under a carport on the 1st of March 2009 with 6 people. We started because the people of Danville spoke a need of a Biblical, relevant and alive church.

In December of 2009 we took over an old pub in Danville and renovated it into our church - a miracle done by God! Today we minister to about 100 people, 30 teenagers and 60 children.
Danville is a poor area in Pretoria West, South Africa - unique in a sense that there is poor people of all cultures and races.

Our vision - to bring His Peace and restoration to the people of Danville. To show them that your circumstances do not dictate God's love for you. Jesus loves all, no matter who you are, what you've done, or how much money you have!

Share the joy of ministering to the poor with us in this blog!

Thoughts speaking!

Yesterday we said as Christians our lives need to show that we are following Christ – we need to talk and walk differently!

Today I heard that our thoughts speak just as loud in heaven as our words speak on earth. This is a scary thought…

Just think, every thought you ever had in your head, was heard! Luckily not audible to everyone in heaven, but most definitely audible to One!

God is aware of each and every thought you have. When you truly become aware of this fact, it is as if you become more cautious about what you allow inside your head!

The Message states it beautifully:

Philippians 4:8(MSG)
 8-9Summing it all up, friends, I'd say you'll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that, and God, who makes everything work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies.

What are you thinking about? Your thoughts will determine your whole life. When you fill your mind with Godly thoughts, God will make everything in your life work together!

Your thoughts will then not only be speaking, but it will be the most excellent harmonies unto Him!

Shalom!
