Our vocation as individuals and together as the Body of Christ
Jesus was asked, which commandment is the first of all, He answered
'to love the Lord our God with all our heart, with all our mind, with all our soul and with all our strength;
and to love our neighbours as ourselves'. (Mark 12.29-31)

Worship lies at the heart of the Christian life. It is in worship that we express our theology and define our identity. It is through encountering God within worship that we are formed (and transformed) as his people.
Benefice Lent Prayer
As the days lengthen and we spend longer in the light of day
Grant that I may spend longer in the Light of Your Presence O Lord
and may those seeds of Your Word which have been long buried within me
grow like everything around us into love for You and love for all Your people.
Grant, Lord, that this Lent there may be a Springtime for my life in Christ. Amen
