The service will be followed by light refreshments in the Church Room as we catch up on news between out three churches. Do come and join us as we praise God together.Our readings this Sunday are: Jeremiah chapter 2: Verses 4-13 Jeremiah reminds Israel that they have forsaken their Lord God, and have a great need to repentLuke chapter 14 verses 7 - 14 The Parable of the Wedding Feast.God of power and justice, like Jeremiah you weep over those who wander from you, turn aside to other gods, and enter into chaos and destruction. By your tears and through your mercy, teach us your ways and write them on our hearts so that we may follow faithfullythe path you show us. Amen.
