We came to the last service in our Lenten series this morning. We have been doing this for some years now. Every Saturday in Lent at 9.30 am a short half-hour service where we focus on an appropriate theme. It is a good preparation for Easter and an opportunity to reflect on the implications of Jesus' sacrifice for us.
This year the theme was 'The Servant-King', exploring passages from Isaiah 40-55. There were six services in all and at four of those elders from St Paul's delivered the Word. Each with their own style but without exception there was an authentic connection with the Word and an eagerness to share what they had gathered.
On a few occasions the fellowship continued after the service with coffee mornings for various causes.
It has been a good time.
