Sunday 4th May -- 8.30am

 
Service this Sunday begins at 8.30am.
 
We won't be acknowledging the day as 'Star Wars Day' (May the 4th be with you!) but instead will continue our celebration of Easter as we hear the account of the two disciples on the road to Emmaus. Having seen their Lord crucified, dead and buried, and even having heard of the resurrection, these two disciples leave Jerusalem in despair and sadness. You see they have forgotten the Scriptures and what they point to and so all this news about Jesus and His dying and rising is just a confused mess to them. But when Jesus arrives on the scene He simply reminds them of what the Scriptures proclaimed and promised. He uses the very same word of God we have at our disposal today - and by the power of the Holy Spirit these two disciples suddenly recognise not only the Lord in their midst, but also everything that He has accomplished for them!
 
See you at 8.30am.
Pastor Matt
