Good morning and welcome to our service of worship here at Connect. If you are visiting with us then a special welcome to you. We invite you to stay after the service and join us for a cup of tea or coffee and chat; as we get to know each other better.
Pastor Julie and some of our folk are away in Fiji at present as part of the Breath of Life Ministry trip. We trust that God is ministering His love and grace through them and that they are being kept safe and healthy.
This morning we continue our series through the Book of James. We are up to chapter 4 in which James confronts his readers with the hard facts about where their allegiance lies. James tells it like it is, and leaves his readers in no doubt about their predicament and what they need to do to make amends. For all who would follow Jesus, it is important that we continue to maintain fellowship with God that honours His sovereignty, love and grace.
During the service we will also share together in Communion. This is a time when we can affirm before God our loving submission and commitment to follow him. All who are on this journey of faith are welcome share in this remembrance of Christ’s love and sacrifice for us.
May you have a blessed week ahead.
Derek Shore
