We hope that you will find much to interest you in our church and that you will want to join us in worship.
Although we are small in number, we are dedicated to the service of our Lord and to each other.
We are known for our friendliness,
look forward to seeing you at our services
at a “Social Distance” and making a new friend.
In accordance with URC advice, we will not be meeting in Church until further notice.
Happy New Year
I do not pray for fame or wealth
But this, Dear Lord, I ask
Sufficient courage for the day
And strength for every task.
I may not have unfailing health
But this I pray, You’ll give
A cheerful spirit, loving heart
As long as I may live
I do not pray for plans and schemes
Or dreams that won’t come true
But give me, Lord, undying fault
And keep me close to You.
Dear Friends,
We anticipate that your Christmas Cards will have had an added ‘greeting’ this year – something to the effect that ‘hope that Next Year’ will be much better than the Year just ended!
For us, as Christians, we surely should be sharing with everyone the assurance that every day, month, year, is one which begins with the promise that Jesus is with us and He travels every day with us and – whatever the day brings – He is there with us!
What do you look at first in your Newsletter? Do you see who is leading our Sunday worship, and do you immediately begin to pray for the person every day through the week asking God’s guidance and Blessing that the presence of the Holy Spirit will guide them, and that, together, our worship will be a special time together in Fellowship.
Will you be spending time reading the Lectionary readings and finding that the Holy Spirit will be speaking to you in a special way. As you do this you will be able to help others and share what inspiration you have been given this week.
Or, maybe, you have picked up a hymn book you have at home and found – to your amazement – the hymn that is speaking to you – is one that is centuries old – or from a more recent time. When we can once again sing from our hymn book take a moment to give thanks for the Blessings that are there for us all to share.
Give to our God immortal praise;
Mercy and truth are all His ways;
Wonders of grace to God belong,
Repeat His mercies in your song.
God Bless you all
Carol David Ian
