Good Morning everyone. Following last night’s news we are now having to keep the church building closed. We had hoped to keep it open but we are committed to following all the guidelines and ensuring we do everything we can to minimise the spread of this virus. We continue to be active on this website and on Facebook to try to ensure we can all continue to be together – although we are physically parted.On the St Eds Facebook page we will do some live streaming at various points so watch this space.In the meantime we continue to pray and please DM us (via our Facebook page) if there is anyone we can pray for specifically. May God’s peace fill us all.Rev Paul, Rachel and the Ministry team
In these uncertain times we need to put our trust and faith in Jesus.Genesis 9:16-17 - part of the message from God to Noah16"Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth." 17 So God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth." From New International Version , Copyright 2011-2019 BiblicaIf you would like to share your trust in Jesus you might like to draw your own rainbow, or print the version attached to this news item, and then put it in your window to share this message with others.
As you know, we have had to suspend all our public gatherings for the time being. This includes our lovely times of contemplation and Compline each Tuesday. For those of you who normally come to this service can we suggest that you keep to the rhythm of contemplative prayer each Tuesday at 7.30pm so that we continue to do it together even though we aren’t! The Church of England Daily Prayer App which is free has the service of Compline (Night Prayer) on it and is worth getting. You can find it in the App StoreRachel
