New Series - Revisiting Ephesians: Made New In Christ 

Our God is all about transformation, turning situations around, bringing life and light and hope. Personal transformation. Church transformation. Community transformation. This is the mission of God in the world as he calls people to himself and transforms us to be more like Jesus. 

This Sunday we reconvene our exploration of Ephesians, returning with fresh eyes to the profound messages of transformation. We’ve taken a pause, but now it’s time to dive back into the depths of this powerful epistle. The first half of Ephesians taught us much about what God has done for us. The incredible truth that we are chosen and loved by God (Eph 1:4-5)1. We’ve learned that salvation is a gift of grace, not earned by works (Eph 2:8-9)1. This truth has created a new united people as one body in Christ (Eph 2:14). 

Now, as we pick up from where we left off, our series turns to apply those lessons to our every day lives. We are going to be encouraged to cast aside our old selves and embrace a new life as imitators of God, living like Jesus. This Sunday, let’s gather to reflect on the transformative power of God that we might grow in kindness, compassion, and forgiveness. So join us over these next few weeks as together we learn how to walk in love. 

“Therefore… walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.” Ephesians 5:2 

This week during the service there will also be Holy Communion. Refreshments will be served before and after the service, groups for children and young people restart and prayer ministry will be available after the service.

Small groups are pausing this week for half term, but will start again next week when we will be looking at the next of the enablers ‘The Sabbath’.

Bring and Share - Sunday 9th June

After the service on the 9th June we would love you to stay and join with us in a ‘Bring and Share Lunch’

It is a wonderful opportunity to build relationships spend time together. We’d be very grateful if you are able to bring something that can be shared with the church family, doesn’t need to be elaborate or substantial. Drinks, plates and cutlery will be provided. In conjuction to the Creation Care team we would like to commend the ‘LOAF principles’ and thought that it might be an opportunity to try using them at this lunch. The acronym stands for ‘ Locally produced, Organically grown, Animal friendly or Fairly traded. More informaton is available online.

Weekly Prayer Points

Each week there will be a few things for our church life and church family that we can join in praying for:

1. As we come to our new series this week we pray that you would help us to see the areas of our lives that need to be transformed and help us walk in love with you in everything we do.

2. We give thanks for the mission work of the Wallace family. Praise God for the excellent time of training Richard had in Ethiopia, seeing the trainers develop in their skills and confidence. Please pray for this work as they continue to empower and multiply leaders there. We also pray for Datchet Church to grow deeper in their love for Christ and for one another, wider in their connections with the surrounding community, and for “the Lord to add to our numbers”.

3. Andy Boorne from Kenwyn Church writes ‘Thank God for the Kenwyn congregation, they really are a super community, and I think God is opening our eyes to more of who he is. We pray that God will move through everything we do to touch people with his love. More specifically, for the people coming to ABC (toddler's) group, the younger Tea Time messy church and older primary school groups and with all the connections into the surrounding communities in both Kenwyn and Rosedale. We ask that God will use the funerals/baptisms and weddings to show himself to people, whether they will return to Kenwyn, or another church God leads them to. We ask you to pray that Jesus will help us to see him better, teach us obedience, and fill us with His love through the power of His Holy Spirit. God bless and thank you.’
