13th June 2022

Good morning,

Yesterday I was preaching and asking if we take time to smell the flowers? I think it’s our intention each day, that we will take some time out for ourselves, but I wonder how many times we actually achieve that?

I was reflecting on Paul’s letter to the Romans and how he was talking about we were all justified by faith; often faith is very hard to define. The biblical definition of faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Hebrews 11:1.

So, if we are justified by faith and if we have faith, then we will have peace.  

If we have faith and peace, then we will receive Grace from GOD through Jesus, who is part of the holy trinity. When we celebrate the three in one, it’s often a hard concept for some, but it’s just what it is.

God is in the beginning; God is the Almighty; God is available to all.

Jesus is God’s son who lived and dwelled with us on earth; Jesus died for our sins, gave us salvation and gave us eternal life.

The Holy Spirit is the third part of God; the Holy Spirit is a comforter and the advocate, sent by God, to help the disciples after Jesus left them.

So, the three work in concert here on earth to cover all our needs. This is, what I believe, completed the circle and now we have the fullness of the trinity. All we have to do is to believe and have faith, to know that this is available to us.

The Trinity is working on our behalf, all the time. When we pray, and then receive a blessing from God, which fills us and overflows, we should give the blessings to others, so that they too can share in that blessing. 

This is how Christian people share God’s love with one another. I hope you will share this to others this week. May God bless you and your families this week.

In Christ

Rev. Janice

Building Next to Church

Building work is ongoing, on the parcel of land to the side of our church building.

Just a reminder that we do still have access to the back of our building, but please don't park, or drive, on any of the land that is being built on.

As always, we will keep you appraised, if it looks like it will impact us further. If you have any questions, please let Rev. Janice know.

We are now worshipping

in-person & online; we do still ask that you wear a mask, when inside the church building.

We hope you will join us.
