Almighty God,
whose Son revealed in signs and miracles
the wonder of your saving presence:
renew your people with you heavenly grace,
and in all our weakness
sustain us by your mighty power;
through Jesus Chr8st your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you
in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.

Readings: Isaiah 9.1-4; 1 Corinthians 1.10-18; Matthew 4.12-23

Isaiah 9:1-4
9 But there will be no gloom for those who were in anguish. In the former time he brought into contempt the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, but in the latter time he will make glorious the way of the sea, the land beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations.
2 The people who walked in darkness
have seen a great light;
those who lived in a land of deep darkness—
on them light has shined.
3 You have multiplied the nation,
you have increased its joy;
they rejoice before you
as with joy at the harvest,
as people exult when dividing plunder.
4 For the yoke of their burden,
and the bar across their shoulders,
the rod of their oppressor,
you have broken as on the day of Midian.

1 Corinthians 1:10-18
10 Now I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you should be in agreement and that there should be no divisions among you, but that you should be united in the same mind and the same purpose. 11 For it has been reported to me by Chloe’s people that there are quarrels among you, my brothers and sisters. 12 What I mean is that each of you says, ‘I belong to Paul’, or ‘I belong to Apollos’, or ‘I belong to Cephas’, or ‘I belong to Christ.’ 13 Has Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? 14 I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius, 15 so that no one can say that you were baptized in my name. 16 (I did baptize also the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized anyone else.) 17 For Christ did not send me to baptize but to proclaim the gospel, and not with eloquent wisdom, so that the cross of Christ might not be emptied of its power.
18 For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
Matthew 4.12-23
12 Now when Jesus heard that John had been arrested, he withdrew to Galilee. 13 He left Nazareth and made his home in Capernaum by the lake, in the territory of Zebulun and Naphtali, 14 so that what had been spoken through the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled:
15 ‘Land of Zebulun, land of Naphtali,
on the road by the sea, across the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles—
16 the people who sat in darkness
have seen a great light,
and for those who sat in the region and shadow of death
light has dawned.’
17 From that time Jesus began to proclaim, ‘Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.'
18 As he walked by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the lake—for they were fishermen. 19 And he said to them, ‘Follow me, and I will make you fish for people.’ 20 Immediately they left their nets and followed him. 21 As he went from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John, in the boat with their father Zebedee, mending their nets, and he called them. 22 Immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed him.
Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and curing every disease and every sickness among the people.

Holy Trinity

Holy Trinity is a Church of England parish church situated on the seafront at Cowes, Isle of Wight. Consecrated in 1832 as "a place of worship on Cowes foreshore for sailors and seafarers" it overlooks the Solent and the Royal Yacht Squadron.

The church maintains special links with the Royal Yacht Squadron and the other sailing clubs and sailors and with seafarers from around the world. Special services are held for the Cowes Week Regatta, the Coastguard, RNLI and Seafarers.

There is a memorial for the 15 sailors lost in the 1979 Fastnet Race. The memorial garden is a place of peace enjoying views over the Solent.

Above all Holy Trinity is the local parish church, welcoming worshippers of all ages, visitors and well behaved dogs!

The Sunday Service usually starts at 09:30 with refreshments afterwards.
