Sunday 18 January: Epiphany

Our service will be led by Revd Carol Cooper

The week of prayer for Christian Unity falls appropriately in the Epiphany Season. We remember the importance of being part of a worldwide church and celebrate with others around the world, as together we follow Christ, the light to the nations.

May we heed Christ's invitation to "come and see" and in so doing, deepen our unity as a diverse and vibrant community of believers.

Reading and Gospel

Our first reading is from Ezekiel 37: 1-14. We hear how, in the valley of dry bones, the transformative power of God's spirit can breathe new life and hope into even the direst of situations.

These verses can be followed on page 836 in the Old Testament of our pew bibles.

This Sunday we continue our new sermon series called "Jesus changes everything".

The Gospel reading is from John 3: 1-11 and starts on page 100 of the New Testament in our pew bibles. The conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus also illustrates the transformative nature of faith as Jesus explains that whoever believes in the Son of Man may have eternal life.

Finally …. a quick note on Churchyard maintenance. Please do not add green garden waste to our Blue Recycling Bin as there is a strong likelihood that our bin will not be emptied until any incorrect items are removed. Green Garden Waste can be added to the compost heap. Thank you for your help. 🙏

And thank you for reading this week's Pew News.
