Our children are precious to all who love and care for them and are precious to God as well.

We all want the very best for them, and so too does God.

So a Baptism, which we celebrate today, is just the beginning of a wonderful lifelong journey of faith ... and so much more.

The Feast of the Most Holy Trinity celebrates the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, the three Persons of God: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. As is traditional our service today also include the Athanasian Creed, which has been in use since the sixth century, and is a statement of Christian belief focused on the Trinitarian doctrine and Christology.

Whilst our regular church services continue as normal, we recognise that for some due to illness or infirmity attendance in person is not always possible, therefore you are warmly invited to join in with our Rector, The Revd Mark Woodrow, and our Curate, The Revd Dr Karen Smith from your own home, as they celebrates Holy Communion from the Vicarage.

The readings for today are 2 Corinthians 13:11-13, and Matthew 28:16-20.

The hymns for today are, How shall I sing that majesty, and, Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty!.

The annual Sponsored Ride and Stride is a national event, and every second Saturday in September cyclists, walkers and runners are out making money for their local county Churches Trust.

The idea started in Suffolk, and is now held across England, with Suffolk leading the table of funds raised. The Ride and Stride is the main source of income to Suffolk Historic Churches Trust to enable it to make grants to churches and chapels of all denominations towards repair and restoration costs.

Ride and Stride is run entirely by volunteers and is inter-denominational, with participants sponsored for each place of worship visited between 9.00am and 5.00pm on Ride and Stride Day or with a donation, regardless of the number of churches visited.

The money raised by each cyclist or walker is shared equally between the Suffolk Historic Churches Trust and the place of worship nominated by the participant.

As important as the participants are the many volunteers who give up the day to man the churches and chapels and sign in the cyclists and walkers as they arrive. Hundreds of places of worship are manned during the day and that takes quite a team of volunteers! It is a real community effort that is the lifeblood of the Trust.
