A WARM WELCOME to the family and friends of Isabelle who is being baptised at St Paul’s today.
From
Murray I
am just back from a lovely service at Holmwood.
It was great to have so many from St Paul’s there to support the singing
and to chat to the residents. As ever Konrad
was working hard to help those who are less well to feel included and part of
the worship. One of the things we did
was to share the signs of spring that we had noticed. We ended up with a really good list –
prompted in part by the daffodils on the windowsills and primula in tubs set
out for us on the table. Signs of spring are all around us, but just as spring
only comes after the cold, dark days of
winter so our joy at Jesus’ resurrection only come after sharing with him the
pain of his journey to the cross.
