Advent – Week 1 Prophecy Candle: God Brings Hope
Today marks the beginning of the season of ‘Advent’ in the church’s liturgical calendar. A time of expectant waiting, preparation and anticipation, leading to hope and joy as we reflect on the significance of Jesus’ first coming some 2,000 years ago and his promised second coming.
Jesus: I am Sayings – I am with you always (Matt 28:20)
JESUS: I AM SAYINGS: I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (Matt 28:20)
Jesus: I Am Sayings: I am the Good Shepherd
Portraits of Jesus – What do we learn about Jesus from how he spoke about himself. The “I Am” sayings in John’s Gospel give us a rich picture of who Jesus claimed to be.
Luke – Witnesses – The Witness of Life Together. Acts 4:23-37
The Gospel of Luke and Acts are a fascinating account of Jesus and those who witnessed his life. We are going to shine a spotlight on the meaning of “witness.” We will be strengthened as followers and as witnesses as we learn from these fascinating stories.

God is our Healer, not just in the sense of physical illness but in the deep sense of making us whole through what Jesus has done for us. This theme dovetails well with Good Friday when we remember the…
Summer Series Sundays: New Year – Reflection on 2022
A service of reflection as we consider the year that was and the year that is to come.
Advent God’s Hope: Bethlehem Candle
Our hope does not lie in the circles of this sad earth, but in a God who breaks through with strong arms to comfort and rescue. Advent speaks of the first and second comings of Christ. We remember the Joy, the Hope, the Love and the Peace that Christmas brings. And then, as the New Year births in summer glory, comes Epiphany and we remember the Light that can lead us all the way to the Saviour of the world.
