The readings at this time of year cover Jesus' miracles and teaching. This is where we meet the Jesus of the every day, the Jesus of farmers and fisherman, who told stories of lost sheep, a man beaten up by the roadside, a ponsy landowner, fishers of men, treasure buried in a field, seed sown by the wayside, or, as in today's gospel, where Jesus talks of his imminent demise and St Peter triesd to play it down, only to be rebuked by Jesus; 'Get thee behind me, Satan'. Our God is a God of the people, not in far off Jerusalem, but walking every day through the fields, and along the shores, of Galilee.

Salinas Anglican Congregation

WELCOME TO THE SALINAS ANGLICAN CONGREGATION THIS CHRISTMAS TIME🎄

At Christmas time we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ in a stable in Bethlehem. We are all familiar with the story - the little town of Bethlehem, the shepherds watching their flocks, the herald angels singing, the 3 Kings from Persian lands afar, and the birth of a small baby to young & humble, yet delighted, parents.

But sometimes we forget what an amazing story it is. Listen to Sir John Betjeman read his famous poem, ‘Christmas’ here, with the powerful final verse:

“No love that in a family dwells,
No carolling in frosty air,
Nor all the steeple-shaking bells
Can with this single Truth compare –
That God was man in Palestine
And lives today in Bread and Wine”

Do join us if you would like to, for our Christmas Eucharist, here at Salinas Church, 4pm (Spanish time) on Christmas Eve. Details of other Christmas services, at our churches in Salinas and Malaga, can be found here.

Listen to Amy Grant sing her lovely Christmas song, ‘I want a Silent Night’, here.
