Lockdown time...

After a few months of discovering creative new ways of meeting face to face, many gatherings under the Gazebo, others out walking, we are now back in a month of increased restrictions. For many it can feel a much tougher time than when we first entered lockdown back in March. There is huge uncertainty about the future, we are fearful for our health, our jobs, our world. As the nights draw in and we approach the season of Advent and Christmas let us remember what a dark world Jesus was born into, a time of oppression, of poverty, but into that darkness the light of hope was born. Not a neon glaring light, but the fragile light of a new born baby.

Over this next month Church without Walls will continue to meet; there will be Daily Prayer, weekly contemplative prayer with Sacred Space, Home Church on a Sunday, all on Zoom and Facebook Live. Talking Point will continue, but back online (and if you are on furlough feel free to drop in and join us) and if you are struggling and just a need a face to face chat get in touch and we can walk and talk together.

In the beginning the Word already existed; the Word was with God, and the Word was God. From the very beginning the Word was with God. Through him God made all things; not one thing in all creation was made without him. The Word was the source of life, and this life brought light to people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has never put it out. John 1: 1-5
