Dear Friends
Warm greetings!
Weekly Greeting: Sunday 31 August 2008
Dear Friends,
Welcome to worship today.
Weekly Greeting: Sunday 6th April
Dear Friends
The theme we will be following for the next six weeks leading up to Pentecost (11 May) is "Come, Holy Spirit". Each Sunday we will examine various aspects of the work of God's spirit in us.
This week we focus on the strength which the spirit gives us to help us in our weakness. One of the words Jesus used to describe the Spirit was, "Comforter". Sadly it is a word which has changed its meaning over the years. Today it has come to mean something like, feeling sorry for someone, or cheering them up. But originally it had a much stronger meaning. It meant "a power which comes alongside us when we are weak or in need."
Christmas time
Dear Friends
2007 has been a busy year it has flown past, certainly for me. I am always so grateful when December comes around again because it is a time when we can slow down a bit. Many businesses close for a few weeks. Followers are in recess. Some are fortunate enough to go on holiday. Some stay home and relax. Whatever this time holds for you, may it be a special and a blessed time.
Peace, Love, Giving and Joy are words we have focused on during Advent. These are central words at Christmas-time, but most important of all is that the living God became flesh and came to live amongst us in order to make it easier to find him and be drawn into a deeper relationship with him. As Charles Wesley's wonderful hymn says, "Our God, contracted to a span, incomprehensibly made man." He became like us in order to open the way for us to come to God. This is the greatest gift of Christmas.
