I hope that this email is useful, and that you are able to spend a few minutes at noon each day, as we pray together as a church family. Please do keep sending your prayer suggestions to me, so that we can make sure we are praying around the needs, burdens and encouragements of our whole church family.

For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say ‘No’ to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age (Titus 2:11-12 NIV)
What are you passionate about? At the moment, it’s quite easy to see where people’s passions lie. There are flags out, and the news is full of a potential England footballing victory. What about life as a Christian? Is that what we are passionate about? What might that look like?
This Sunday, we’re continuing our short series looking at Experiencing God. This week, we’re going to be considering how we experience passion for living as a Christian.
I hope you’ll be able to join us either in person, or online, as we look together at God’s grace and mercy towards, and how that helps us to live as passionate Christians.
Wednesday Prayer @ 10am
This Wednesday, at 10am, we'll meet via Zoom for a short time to pray together. We'll take the first few Wednesdays as they come, and see what pattern works for us. I'd love for you to join us via Zoom, please email me for details of how to join.
We'll be no more than 20 minutes, which will give enough time to make a hot drink before joining the Virtual Coffee Shop.

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: rejoice! (Philippians 4:4 NIV)
It feels like joy has been in short supply over the last year or so. So many things that we are used to doing and events that we have planned for have been cancelled, postponed or changed. When St Paul tells us to rejoice always, can he really mean it?
This Sunday, we’re continuing our short series looking at Experiencing God. This week, we’re going to be considering how we experience joy: how can we know joy when life can be so hard?
I hope you’ll be able to join us either in person, or online, as we look together at God’s peaceful, and how our experience of it can help us to be at peace in an anxious and agitated world.
