The Feast of the Epiphany
6 January 2023
O God, by the leading of a star you manifested your only Son to the peoples of the earth: Lead us, who know you now by faith, to your presence, where we may see your glory face to face; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

The 50-Day Bible Challenge: Journey with Saint John
Sunday school resumes this weekend at 9.45 am for all ages. The adult forum begins with The 50-Day Bible Challenge: the Gospel of St John. The 'challenge' is to read the entire gospel of St John over the coming 50 days, between now and Ash Wednesday. We'll discuss portions of the gospel on Sundays as well as the how the bible came to be, the uniqueness of St John's gospel, and why Scripture study is an important part of the Christian life.

There is a book that may be helpful to your study which can be purchased on Amazon (LINK) but all you really need is a bible! Join the challenge and discover a deep connection with God!
