Why is being baptised a bit like joining a football team?  Sounds like the start of joke, doesn't it?!  Well, to find out the answer, please click here to read tomorrow morning's sermon.

Please and Thank you

Do you ever feel unappreciated...as though all the work you do for God goes unnoticed...perhaps even by your Vicar?!  Does no-one say 'please' and 'thank you' to you?  What does it mean to be a servant of God?  To think more about that, please see tomorrow's sermon, by clicking here.

Story-time

A couple of weeks ago I read a story in church...an imaginative version of the story when John and James' mother asked Jesus for preferential treatment.

Church...Is this what God had in mind?

Do you sometimes wonder whether the way we 'do' church is exactly what Jesus had in mind?  I do!  If you'd like to read some ruminations on this theme, explored in yesterday's (sermon of all places!),  please click here.
