Our Lenten devotions continue this week on Thursday evening, beginning at 5.30pm. As our meditation on the passion continues, we will be contemplating Peter's threefold denial of Christ during His trial before the high priest. Rather than pointing our finger at St Peter, we will remember the ways in which we all 'follow at a distance' and rejoice that our salvation is secured by Christ's faithfulness, not ours.
This Sunday (24th Feb.) there will be no service in Shepparton as our parish AGM is being held in Echuca. Divine Service will commence at 10am and will be followed by our AGM and then lunch together. Please endeavour to be at this important parish gathering as we commend our parish to the Lord for another year and commit ourselves to the work He has provided.
What better text to hear on such a day than Romans 5:1-11?
God proves his love for us in that while we still were sinners Christ died for us.
God's peace,
Pastor Matt
