Our traditional Carols by Candelight service for 2021. Featuring readings, carols and a short talk from Chris.
We conclude our Advent series for this year with Chris tackling the quesion of what happens if we die before Jesus returns? We explore the four reassurances that Paul gives the Thessalonians. To paraphrase: “we don’t know much, but what we do know is good!”
Karen leads the rest of the service whilst Lynne and Mike lead our sung worship.
Continuing our Advent series, this week Chris looks at 1 Thessalonians chapter 3, asking the question “how can we endure?”. As we have been reading, the Thessalonians at the time of writing were suffering from persecution yet their faith in Jesus had not faltered. How can we follow their example when experiencing troubled periods in our own lives?
Shona leads the rest of the service, with an update from Maureen on our Mission of the Month, BMS World Mission, and Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.
Our All-Age series on Frontline Sundays continues for December, with Chris looking at how we can show the love of God whoever we are. He examines the Lord’s Prayer in detail, explaining how each of the lines explains how we can worship God in our situation.
Ant leads the rest of the service whilst Mike leads the sung worship.
As we enter into advent, this year we are looking at the book of 1 Thessalonians. Advent is a time of reflection, of waiting on God, remembering the wait for Jesus’ birth and anticipating his return. Chris this week asks the question who will rescue us?
Andy leads the rest of the service as we participate in Communion and Nick leads the sung worship.
For our Science Sunday service for 2021 Rev Dr John Weaver speaks about a subject that is rarely out of the news: climate change. What does the Bible have to say about how can we as Christians respond to the challenge of combatting climate change and how can we change our habits to ensure that God’s creation is not tarnished further?
Chris leads the rest of the service, whilst Pete leads our sung worship.
In the final part of our series in Romans, Chris answers the familiar question “What did the Cross Achieve?” with an explanation of how it gives us new life. He explores how having new life gives us the ability to have new relationships with God, with each other and with creation.
Susan leads the rest of the service with the traditional 2 minutes silence at 11 o’clock for Remembrance Sunday. Mike and Lynne lead sung worship.
We take a break from our series in Romans for November’s All-Age service. Chris and James show us how we can show the love of God through whatever we do and wherever we are.
Lynne and Mike lead this week’s sung worship.
We continue our series in Romans, asking the question What did the cross achieve, with this week Chris focussing on the cross achieving victory. Victory over sin, victory over the enemy, victory over death itself. If God is for us, who can stand against us?
