The eucharist service on Sunday was celebrated by the Rector, the Rev Lesley Walker. Her sermon talked of disciples.
Asking who, what and why, she defined disciples as people who gather around a teacher seeking truth and knowledge. Both Jesus’ disciples in the Bible, and His disciples today, are ordinary people and the reasons for following Jesus have not changed - to listen, learn and experience the charisma of Jesus. We should be true to those first disciples who gave up everything to follow Christ. Lessons were read by Wendy Bailey and the Rector.
The service on Sunday at 11.15am will be a family service for Candlemass taken by the Rev Heather Aston.
