Mother’s Day - This Sunday

As we continue our 2024 all age series on questions for God, we explore the topic of what God can teach us through our mums. We might be surprised at the answer! God cares for us even more than our own mums, and though we may have painful memories connected with motherhood, we can learn a lot about how to trust God from them. God asks us to humbly trust Him as a baby trusts their mother. We will find rest in Him forevermore if we do as He says! 

Do join us if you can, refreshments will be served both before and after the service.

Enable - Grieving The Holy Spirit

Last week, we saw that everyone who comes to Christ receives the gift of the Holy Spirit; every Christian has the Spirit living in them right now - amazing! More than that, last week we explored what it looks like for a Christian to be to be filled with or by the Holy Spirit.

But as we read last week’s verses, about being filled by the Holy Spirit, allowing him to change the whole of our lives, we also saw a different idea - not being filled but instead ‘grieving’ the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 4:30). This is the idea we are going to explore this week.

If you want to explore this truth more, why not go back and look at last week’s session again. A number of us are also aiming to get together to reflect on this truth some more - for more information about that just let me (Marc) know.

APCM - Electoral Roll Applications

Our APCM is to be held on Wednesday 17th April at 7pm. If you are part of St Kea and have not yet completed an Electoral Roll form it would be great if you could do so asap. Closing date for applications for this year is 24th March. The form can be found on our website using the link below. Forms can be returned via email to pccsecretary@stkea.org.uk or return hard copies to the Church Office.

Women’s Breakfast

This year in our Trinity Women’s Breakfasts we are looking at attributes of God -a fantastic way to encourage each other to completely rely on our God and grasp how He can be trusted with every detail of our lives. If you’re curious about who God says He is, this is a great place to start.

On Saturday 23rd March at Kea Church we are focusing on God’s self-existence, what it means for us that God is uncreated and the creator of everything. Do join us as we explore this truth and see how it can transform our walk with Christ

Trinity Evening - 20th March

Once a term we meet together as a Benefice for an evening of updates, stories of encouragement from each congregation, hymns and prayers for each congregation. This term we will be gathering at Kenwyn Church so do join for drinks and puddings from 7pm, with our evening together starting at 7.30pm. We look forward to seeing you then.

Easter At Trinity Churches

We are excited to share all the different services we have coming up over the Easter period at Christ Church starting with our all age Palm Sunday service on 24th March.

On Maundy Thursday we will join together with our friends at St Kea Church to have a wonderful Praise and Worship evening as well as sharing in a meal together and taking communion during the service. If you are looking for a more reflective/quiet service, Kenwyn Church will be holding a service at the same time.

Good Friday we are back at ABB School for an all age family service in the morning at 9.30.

Finishing on Easter Sunday where we will be celebrating the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, followed by an Easter Egg Hunt for the the children and young people.

Do be thinking of friends and family you could invite to these different services.

Weekly Prayer Points

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

1. As we come to end of our Generosity series please help us reflect on what we have heard over the last few weeks and how we can serve our brothers and sisters this season.

2. Thank you God for our Gospel Partners the Wallace Family. They would like to us to praise God for their safe travels and impacting trainings in Cuba as well as 2 inspiring conferences Richard attended in February. Please also be continuing to pray for Datchet Baptist Church where Richard is working to grow deeper in discipleship, community, teamwork and leadership, and wider in blessing the local community and outreach.

3. Thank you for the Lent course being held at St John’s Church and for the people who are attending it. We pray for Jericho road as it continues working with the homeless community.
