Alleluia.

Dear Friends,

Happy Easter

My apologies that this is arriving a day after Sunday - but it is a reminder that Easter is a season - we will be staying with the stories of resurrection for a number of weeks as we get glimpses of Jesus meeting with different people a revealing more of the power of his resurrection to offer us new life, new love, new hope.Thank you to all who have participated in Holy week services and prepared our churches for the joyful celebration of Easter Day.For those who have been unable to come to church in person I am attaching Easter prayers and my Easter morning sermon.

I will be taking a week of Annual Leave from tomorrow.Revd Jean is very happy to be contacted for pastoral matters For any practical concerns Sam White or Vivien Thomas and Barbara Burnard are the first ports of call (see below). My thanks to them.I am grateful too for those taking services next week:

Lynton 11am Holy Communion: Revd Laurence Hillel

May the blessings of Easter renew and restore our world in the days to come,

God bless
