*******************************

Trinity Sunday – Today, the first Sunday after Pentecost is the day when our focus turns to the Holy

Trinity — the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Although the word “trinity” does not appear in Scripture, it is

taught in Matthew 28:18-20 and 2 Corinthians 13:14 and many other bible passages. The concept of the

trinity can never be completely understood or rationalized, but it is clearly taught in Scripture. It is

appropriate that this mystery is celebrated on the first Sunday after Pentecost, when the outpouring

of the Holy Spirit first occurred. On Trinity Sunday we try to explain the clues written in Scripture which guide us to a fuller understanding of our triune God. The Father is God from the beginning (John 1:1); Jesus revealed Himself as equal to the Father in John 10:30, “I and the Father are one.” Together, they sent the Holy Spirit (John 14:26). “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:19).

God for us, we call You Father, God alongside us, we call You Jesus,

God within us, we call You Holy Spirit.

Messy Church - Will take place in the Broadway Rooms from 10.00 am to 12.30 pm, this Saturday. Crafts, puppets, worship and lunch. We always need lots of helpers to look after our guests so come along and we’ll be sure to find you a job.

The Dream Team Singers – This Saturday (10th), are presenting an afternoon of music and singing to celebrate the lives of two of their members. It starts at 2 pm and entry is free. There will be refreshments and a retiring collection. All are welcome and it’s sure to be a gathering full of joy.

Thursday Mornings – Have you been along to the Jubilee room on a Thursday morning? If not why not give it a go now the weather is a bit brighter? Bring a friend, have a cuppa and get to know some new people. We are so very grateful to the band of church folk who provide this weekly opportunity for us.

If you are stuck at home on a Thursday and not able to get out then Pastor George runs a Churches Together bible study on Zoom each week starting at 10.30 am. If you would like to give this a go, please speak to the Vicar who will organise a link for you.

Please also remember in your prayers: Rev Jane Everitt, Rev Martin Keighley, Elizabeth King, Chris Kelsall, Michaela Jones, Mark Price, Grantham Fidler, Tony Hardman, John Hawley & Peter Hollier. And the families of Leslie Goodey, Brett Leicester and Tom Hardman whose funerals are due to take place.
