Another week of themes!!

Hi folks

I'm feeling like a true liturgical renegade nowadays!  I've went slightly off-book with our readings for the last fortnight - the first week looking at the Ten Commandments, the second at the "I am..." sayings of Jesus.  I have thoroughly enjoyed the preparation and lessons we have received from each day, and so I've decided to continue the theme of themes!

Next week, I have decided to consider the role of some of the many "Women in the Bible". I have chosen some fairly major characters, and a few minor ones who still played a huge role in God's plans in their lives.

Monday morning - Eve

Monday evening -  Sarah

Tuesday morning - Rachel

Tuesday evening -  Rahab  

Wednesday morning - Bathsheba
Link - MP2 13-05-2020
Wednesday evening - Ruth and Naomi

Thursday morning - Esther

Thursday evening - Mary Mother of Jesus

Friday morning - Mary Magdalene
Friday evening - Mary and Martha

I hope you’ll enjoy the series, and I’ve already decided that the theme for the following week will be the "Appearances of Angels" throughout the Scriptures. 

Keep safe, God bless.

Hiroshima Remembrance

Hi folks Today, 6th August 2025, is the 80th anniversary since the United States of America dropped an atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. Shortly afterwards, they dropped a similar device on another Japanese city of Nagasaki. Between the two events, over 200,000 people died, and Japan surrendered - ending the Second World War. The ripples from these two horrific events are still felt today, and the lessons from them are more relevant in today's world than ever before! Each day we hear about the tensions around the world regarding nations developing nuclear weapons, threatening to release havoc upon the world. Although the weapons are often referred to as deterants, the danger is that the whole world could be effectively ended within minutes if someone decided to release their particular weapon upon an enemy state! I pray that today reminds the world leaders about the absolute devastation that these weapons bring. They do not distinguish between combatants or civilians. ...

August Hymns and Readings

 Hi folks Here's the next list for the readings, readers and hymns for our services throughout August. There are five Sundays this month, and in our normal pattern, our fifth Sunday will be a Cafe Church service in the Parish Hall. As ever - this is just a guide, if you need to swap your date - just let someone know. Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to read each month, and if you'd like to join the list, please let the church wardens or the Rector know. If we need to do so, both David and the Rector are more than happy to fill in for any given reading!
