Today is Bible Sunday, a day set aside in the church calendar to celebrate the gift of God’s word to us.
‘Blessed Lord, who caused all holy Scriptures to be written for our learning: Grant us so to hear them, read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them, that we may embrace and ever hold fast the blessed hope of everlasting life, which you have given us in our Saviour Jesus Christ; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen’

What’s life really all about? What actually is most important and precious? If you’re asking questions then why not try Alpha?
Alpha is a great introduction to the Christian faith and an opportunity through eleven weekly sessions to explore what life is all about. Each session includes a short film and time for discussion. You can come with any questions or none. You can come to any or all sessions, there’s no pressure to stay. It’s for anybody—non-believing, new to faith, or wanting a refresher.
We’re starting an Alpha course on Thursday 8th May. If you’d like to join us please contact Revd Olly.
