Covenant Service at Robin Hood's Bay Methodist Church

Occurring
for 2 hours
Venue
Robin Hood's Bay Methodist Church,
Address
Manor Road Robin Hood's Bay, YO22 4RW, United Kingdom

There will be no service at St Stephen's as we will be joining Robin Hood's Bay Methodists at 10.30 am for their Covenant Service.

The Covenant Service, often celebrated on the first Sunday of the year, is at the heart of Methodists’ devotion and discipleship, and their dedication in working for social justice. In the service the Church joyfully celebrates God’s gracious offer to Israel that “I will be their God and they shall be my people”.
All are welcome to share in a Covenant Service. You will be welcome, whether you are sharing in a Covenant Service for the first time, have done it annually for many years, or simply want to watch what others do without taking part yourself. The service is a gift not a demand! And God will give you the grace to do it all. You are not alone!
This idea of Covenant was basic to John Wesley’s understanding of Christian discipleship. He saw the relationship with God in Covenant as being like a marriage between human beings (both as a community and as individuals) on the one side and God in Christ on the other (cf. Ephesians 5.21-33).
