A short prayer for the month ~ Loving God show us what a privilege it is that it is you we are serving. We place in your hands Lord all that we are, all that we do, everything we work for, the troubles that worry us, the thoughts that disturb us, each person that we work along side and each for whom we have responsibility. Amen.
If you have any good holiday snaps that you think would make nice backdrops for hymns or bible texts and would like to see them featured on the screen on a Sunday please give a digital copy to the projection team.
