Welcome to Christ Church.
This Sunday, is the twenty first Sunday after Trinity, and we celebrate this with a service of Holy Communion at 10.30 am at Christ Church.
After the service we will enjoy light refreshments in the Church Room as we catch up on the news of the week.
For those unable to attend this service, Astrid has prepared a sermon which becomes live on Sunday Morning, so please click on the link below. A copy of her sermon can be downloaded from our news section.
Our readings today are :
Isaiah Chapter 53 verses 4-12 For He was led like a lamb to the slaughter
Mark Chapter 10 verses 35-45 The disciples request.
We pray for forgiveness this day.
For choosing power over service, forgive us.
For seeking glory rather than humility, forgive us.
For pushing ourselves to the front,
when our presence is needed on the sidelines, forgive us.
Help us know where we are needed
and how best to serve you and your people.
Guide us to your side,
that we might be your hands
of healing and compassion
for a world in need.
In Christ’s name, we pray.
Amen.
