Sunday 31st May is Trinity Sunday, and Christ Church celebrates the triune majesty of God with a Benefice service of Holy Communion at 10.30am. Our service will be followed by light refreshments in the Church Room, as we exchange news and share our experiences between the churches. Do come and join us Our Readings are:Isaiah Chapter 40 Verses 12-17 and 27-31 THe Lord is the edverl;asting God, and those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles,and Matthew Chapter 28, verses 16-20 The Commissioning of the DisciplesAlmighty and eternal God, we praise and adore you—Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer. Three Persons in one perfect bond of love, you have revealed yourself as a mystery beyond our understanding, yet a presence that dwells intimately within us. [1, 2]God the Father, our Creator, we thank you for adopting us as your children and sustaining all of life.God the Son, our Redeemer, we praise you for your sacrifice, which washes away our sins and offers us eternal grace.God the Holy Spirit, our Comforter and Guide, we invite you to blow through our lives, knit us together in unity, and fill us with faith. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]Triune God, we pray for your Church and for the world. May we reflect the diversity and perfect harmony of your nature, living in peace and serving those in need. In all that we do, may our lives bring glory to your Holy Name. [1]Amen.
