We’re starting a new service series this week, and we’re taking the opportunity to remind ourselves of how Jesus describes himself. In John’s gospel, Jesus uses the phrase “I Am” to show everyone that He is truly God, and there are seven famous ‘I Am’ sayings. Over the next few weeks, we’re going to look […]
This Sunday we reach the last service in our series where we’ve been thinking about some of the encounters that Jesus had with people, and how their lives were changed as a result. This week Paulette and Diane consider a man who was born blind, but all that changed when he met Jesus… The religious […]
Kim and Jackie are leading our service this Sunday, which has something of a coastal flavour this week, as we hear about an encounter with Jesus on the shore… In a sign pointing to the abundant blessings of the Kingdom of God, Peter was brought to his knees by God’s grace and his own sense […]
Sue and Robert introduce us to the next person in our series who had an encounter with Jesus. The full passage can be found in chapter 8 of John’s gospel.. The religious police try to enlist Jesus into a lynch mob against a “sinner”. He turns the tables on them. Does she escape by the […]
We continue with our series of Encounters with Jesus in our Sunday service this week. We are delighted to welcome back Lucy Cooke from Northern Synod, who will be looking at one woman’s encounter with Jesus whilst she was suffering from a debilitating health condition.

We return to our series of Encounters with Jesus this Sunday. Bill is leading our communion service, and he takes us to the encounter Jesus had with a young man who is searching for eternal life. In Jesus’ times, to be rich was usually thought to show that God really liked you. The Rich young […]

Kim and Tim are leading our worship service this Sunday, and they take us to an encounter that Jesus had with a woman who’s name is not given to us. The Samaritan woman at the well appears in just one passage in one of the Gospels and yet her presence echoes through centuries as she […]
As we continue our series looking at people that Jesus encountered, Paulette leads our worship this Sunday and directs our attention to a passage in Luke chapter 17 when Jesus heals 10 lepers, yet only one returns to give thanks. Why only one? What was different about this man? Luke gives us a vital piece […]
We start a new sermon series this week, which will take us through the summer holiday period. Are you planning to travel over the next few weeks? If you are, you’ll almost certainly encounter people that you’ve never met before. Even if you’re not going away, you may well meet people that you don’t know […]
