A prayer for our 140th Church Anniversary which we celebrated in our worship on Sunday 3rd September

               Anniversary Prayer.

I give thanks to you for the gifts you have given me –

my life, my family, my friends – my faith in Jesus.

All that I have comes from you.

Help me to remember this

and rejoice in your goodness.

Walk with me my God.

Help me as I join in the spiritual journey

that began here

a hundred and forty years ago.

Renew in me your spirit,

that filled generations before

and formed my faith in you.

Give me the strength and courage

to become a better follower of Jesus,

to give as a gift for future generations,

what I have received as a gift from you.

May I, my family, and this church

give glory to you, my God,

now and forever.  Amen

Palm Sunday 9th April

Palm Sunday commemorates Christ’s triumphant arrival in Jerusalem to the cheers of the crowd.

The next day the great crowd that had come for the Feast heard that Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem,

Later in that week many of the people in that cheering crowd would be among those shouting that Jesus should be executed.
