Hello,

Hopefully everyone is making the most of the gradual easing of lockdown. Here’s what’s coming up in the Benefice:

As always, it would be helpful if you could let me know you’re planning on coming to the building.

 

Friday Live!

Friday Live! continues tonight. Please join us if you can.

 

 

Confirmations

Next Sunday (16^th) Bishop Julian will be joining us to preach at both churches and there will be Confirmations at St. Bartholomew’s.

APCM

Our Annual Parochial Church Meeting will take place after the morning services on Sunday 23^rd May. You’ll need to be on the electoral role, and there in person to vote. (although you can join and listen in on Zoom)

Please get in touch if you’d like more information.

Ezekiel

Bones coming to life, a big baddy destroyed, a miraculous temple built. Find out more about what’s going on in Ezekiel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynpBf5Ompkg&t=291s

Reflection

I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

Romans 8:18

Suffering is awful, and Christians will experience it (just like Jesus did). But we also have an amazing, secure hope – a future so glorious that it doesn’t even compare to what we’re going through now! We can be certain of that future when we put our hope in Jesus.

In Christ,

Chris
