A relatively small number of us met yesterday morning. But a truly blessed time, with words of encouragement from Barry H, sharing from the psalms the frequency of the exhortation to trust the Lord, with the associated promise of peace.  Cliff led us in breaking bread, and there was prayer for one people who were absent. Shirlene shared from Hebrews …

The Bible is a collection of books, written by a variety of people (kings, farm workers, fishermen, a doctor, a tentmaker, and others) over several thousand years. But each writer was inspired by the Lord, and the Bible is reliable and truthful, because it is God’s word to us. Here are a few things about the Bible. ‘All scripture is …

It’s always lovely to have family staying, and also when they join us on a Sunday. And so it was good to have Fiona with us this morning. Bob forgot to put his clock back, and then overslept – and so arrived on time! But I led worship. Thank you to all you contributed, in readings, prayer, leading communion (Barry …

It was a special Sunday for us with Gill Bonner speaking, and a Liberty Lunch following. There are always a few away or sick, but we found the room comfortably full. Gill is part of the leadership team at Swanton Abbott community chapel and this was her first time visiting us, accompanied by Susie, from the same fellowship.  It was …

It’s always good to have visitors, and we welcomed Michaela, who had been once before. It was Michelle’s birthday, and on Thursday, will be Shirlene’s birthday. We mentioned that Ann had requested prayer for her walking, which she had recently found difficult. I reminded people of this, but Ann interrupted me to say that she was now walking well again. …

Bob took a break from leading worship, and the understudy (me) stepped in. We were sad to hear that Margaret Cornell had gone to be with Jesus, and thanked God for a life well-lived. Living near Ely, we had not seen Margaret for a year or more, but loved her visits.  Barry testified about his collapse on a recent park …

What a week! Connie’s funeral Monday, and her celebration on Tuesday. Both events were so well attended. Thank you to all who attended and participated. A contrast this morning. Mark working, Barry recovering from surgery…. but well done Bob, for leading us to a heavenly place. Everyone contributed, and we reflected on Passover in Exodus 12, seeing the Person of Jesus …

GOODBYE FOR NOW, dear Connie, loved and missed by so many. On Monday, the crematorium service at Gorleston was as tasteful as the crematorium itself – warm, welcoming, and respectful. It was sad and yet celebratory. Not surprisingly, there was a good crowd. So many people loved Connie. Yesterday we had a service of celebration at Kingsgate Community Church, and …

We love seeing new faces here, and it was good to welcome Darren, brought by Michelle, and John, brought by Frank. We warmed to their sense of humour, and would love to see them again. Well done Bob, for being so positive, having just lost Connie. It’s still hard to believe. We paused to pray for the funeral services this …
