On our table was an invitation to an \u201dAwakening\u201d Beer Festival at St Johns Church also in Gosport. St John\u2019s is the home of Quay West Studios which organise concerts and other events (like beer festivals!) in the St John\u2019s building.<br \/>\n Now St Johns was going to be the venue for our staged concert of Theophilus \u2013 The Musical but it was not going to be ready in time for our May 2022 date, so eventually we, very successfully, held the concert in the school hall of Bay House. School. Here is a link to Act One. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=A-87zYCmank\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">(2) Theophilus The Musical &#8211; Staged Concert Version &#8211; Act One &#8211; YouTube<\/a> I\u2019ll post a link to Act Two next week- this is particularly topical as we are completing the filming of a spin off to Theophilus \u2013 A Journey of Faith \u2013 more of that in the next few weeks. The point of all this is that the St John\u2019s venue was awesome!! The place looked like something out of a trendy London night club, the lighting was great \u2013 the sound was fantastic \u2013 live bands had been playing throughout the beer festival. The foyer area has been transformed into a bar \u2013 the whole place looked really great \u2013 so many congratulations to Louis and Nick and all those involved in the project. I loved the place so much so that I have started to have dreams of putting on a Mustard Seed Songs event there \u2013 so please watch this space.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Quote of the week <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Happy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"705\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Happy.jpg 705w, https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Happy-220x300.jpg 220w, https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Happy-624x850.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 705px) 100vw, 705px\" \/><br \/>\nAuthor Unknown<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>St John&#8217;s Church, Gosport Walking With The King of Kings featuring the Mustard Seed Soul Band from the album Precious recorded and produced by Ross Gill So, my wife Caroline and I are in the Tap Room in Stokes Road, Gosport for a pre- Thai meal drink.
