This Sunday is Pentecost - that great celebration of the gift of the Holy Spirit and the reversal of Babel. By God's grace the Holy Spirit was poured out on those present in Jerusalem and they were enabled to hear and so were brought to faith Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. God still works the same way today as the Holy Spirit calls, gathers and enlightens those with ears to hear through the gospel. Thanks be to God for this wonderful gift!
The readings are included below for your preparation and service begins at 8.30am.
Please also remember that our dear brother Frederiko has recently had news of the death of his daughter in Burundi and so we will be holding a memorial service on Sunday afternoon at 3pm. Please join us to support our brother at this sad time.
God's peace,
Pastor Matt
