Welcome to Christ Church.
This Sunday, the Seventeenth Sunday after Trinity, we celebrate Christ's presence with a service of Morning Praise in the Iona Tradition at 10.30 am..
Foillowing the service, we will enjoy light refreshments in the church room as we catch up on the week's news, hear about absent friends and make plans for the future.
For those unable to attend this service, Astrid has prepared a sermon which becomes live on Sunday Morning, so please click on the link below. A copy of her sermon can be downloaded from our news section.
https://youtu.be/C03el9wNrH8Our readings are
James Chapter 3 verses 13-Chapter 4 verse3 and 7-8a True Wisdom
Mark Chapter 9 verses 30-37 The disciples argue about "Who is the Greatest?"
´Lord God, give us the strength to be servants for you. When our pride gets in the way, when we get frustrated with those around us, when we allow anger to get the better of us, when tiredness overtakes us, help us to remember that Jesus washed the feet of his disciples, including those of the one who planned to betray him. May we, like Christ, learn to put self to one side and to take the path of child-like humility.
´Amen
