For Sunday 27th June, 11am

Oops, I did it again! No, I'm not promoting Britney Spears' ditties, I'm apologising for neglecting the blog again for the last month or so. But knowing that I'm forgiven by grace through faith in Christ our Lord, I'm not going to dwell on my failings!

Instead I'm going to tell you to come along and receive this same gift at worship this Sunday which will begin at 11am.

We will commemorate the Presentation of the Augsburg Confession - the central document of our Lutheran Confessions and one of the clearest expositions of the true Christian faith ever penned.

Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses. In the sight of God, who gives life to everything, and of Christ Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you to keep this command without spot or blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, which God will bring about in his own time—God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honour and might forever. Amen.
1 Timothy 6:12-16

God's peace,
Pastor Matt
