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

Lent Reflections – Session 2 will take place in the Broadway Way Rooms at 4 pm this Wednesday. Hope you will come along even if you missed the first one. Please ring the Vicarage if you need a lift – 874402. We’re aiming to be finished no later than 5.15 pm.

World Day of Prayer“I beg you, bear with one another in love.” The Christian Women of Palestine are calling us to connect with the land from where Jesus came; where he was born, ministered and died – and from where our faith began and is rooted. Despite living in an area of the world where there is dreadful conflict and the future is uncertain, the women of Palestine are sharing with love a reminder that they are there, and they want to give hope to everyone. The theme of the service this Friday ‘bear with one another in love’ seems very appropriate for these women who will not give up witnessing the love of Jesus Christ.

World Day of Prayer is an international, inter-church organisation led by women which enables us to hear the thoughts of those women from all parts of the world: their hopes, concerns, and prayers.

Our local gathering will take place at Emmanuel Church at 2 pm this Friday and we are encouraged more than ever, given the circumstances, to go along and join with the whole world in prayers for peace and reconciliation between Palestine and Israel.

Loving God, walk with us as we journey through the land where

you lived and taught. Open our eyes to see the present suffering

of the inhabitants of this land. Grant us the strength and courage to act and pray with all who suffer around the world. Amen.

Please remember in your prayers: Tony Ryan, Louise Clark, Rev Martin Keighley, Mark Price, Craig Abson, Peter Holden, Alan Morris & Rev Jane Everett.

Please also remember the families and friends of, Colin Cook, Christine Jenkinson and John Richardson who have recently passed to glory.
