The Kingdom Season is a time for forgiveness, reconciliation, and healing. The readings are apocalyptic in tone, depicting the end of the world and judgement themes predominate until they conclude with the triumphant Feast of Christ the King who will reign over all things in the peaceable Kingdom of God. On Sunday 26th November we celebrate Christ the King who has completed God's work through his life, death, and resurrection.
We continued exploring prayer and our journey with Jesus Christ. We used various resources to hold, listened to music, plus settling to relax in stillness and calm. Our next meeting is ‘Hush before the Rush’ on Wednesday 6th December at 7.30pm in St Anne’s church, – come and press ‘pause’ and find peace in the busyness of Christmas preparations. All welcome .
Dear God, As I carve my Pumpkin, hear my prayer. Open my mind so I can learn about You (Cut the top of the Pumpkin) Take away all my sins and forgive me for the wrong things I do. ( Clean out the inside of the Pumpkin) Open my eyes so Your love I will see. (Cut out the eyes shape of a heart if possible) I’m sorry for turning my nose up to all you have given me. (Cut out nose shape of a cross if possible) Open my ears so Your word I will hear. (Cut ears out shaped like a Bible) Open my mouth so I can tell others your are near. (Cut mouth in shape of a fish if possible) Let your light shine in all I say and do. (Place a candle inside and light it) Amen
