As we begin to prepare for our away day in a fortnight’s time Karen and Chris lead a sharing service where the floor is left open for any member of the congregation to bring pictures, words, scriptures, senses of God’s presence, anything that they feel is from the Lord. What is God saying to us as a Church as we navigate our way through a sometimes troubling and difficult world?
Lynne and Dave lead our sung worship.
Join us this week as we celebrated Pentecost together! Chris speaks on the circumstances surrounding the revelation of the Holy Spirit to the disciples in Jerusalem and its happening at a significant point in the Jewish calendar, how God pre-prepared for that moment by decreeing the festivals to be celebrated thousands of years beforehand. The people in Jerusalem heard God speaking through the disciples gathered there. That same Spirit enables us to hear from God too. What have you heard recently?
As Susan was unwell, Chris also leads the rest of the service with a reflection on how the Spirit cannot be contained and is like a breath and fire. Lynne and Dave lead our sung worship.
Our speaker this week is our EBA regional minister Gale Richards. Gale speaks on Jesus’ encouragement to us that he is our bread of life, the sustinence that we all need. How can we embrace that and begin to share it with those around us?
Ant leads the rest of the service as he asks us what Jesus’ favourite sandwich would be (it’s relevant, we promise!), Pete gives us an update on our Mission of the Month (AIM) and Mike and Dave lead our sung worship.
In our all age services we are continuing to look at the theme of “more and more” and this month we focus on loving God’s family. James leads the service as we think about how we can love each other as God loves us, by bearing with one another and chosing to forgive our fellow believers.
Mike and Dave lead our sung worship this week.
