Be Still for the Presence of the Lord

Justice?

The yellow area was known as the Kingdom of Judah over 3 thousand years ago.

Our assembly today is about Isaiah - a prophet who lived in Judah.

Why was Judah talking of justice? What did he mean when he said:

 ¹⁶ Wash and make yourselves clean. 

                              Take your evil deeds out of my sight; 

stop doing wrong. 

¹⁷ Learn to do right; seek justice.    

Defend the oppressed.^[a] 

Take up the cause of the fatherless;    

plead the case of the widow.

(Isaiah 1:16-17)

Harvest Festivals

Harvest assembly on September 23rd began with an amazing collection of foods to be shared among the local community.

We gave thanks for food and reflected on our responsibility to appreciate God's gifts and not to waste food.

At Harvest festival in Church on Sunday we joined the congregation in songs and prayers of thanks, and brought our own bit of Harvest rock n roll!

Give us each day our daily bread

"Give us each day our daily bread." comes from the book of Luke Chapter 11 Verse 3.

At first glimpse - it looks as though Jesus is talking about our meals and hunger. But is he talking about more? Food can nourish us and keep us healthy. Jesus is concerned about our spiritual nourishment. What does this mean?

Is there a link between Luke 11 and Joel 2.26? What do yo think it might be?

Harvest celebrations

It's that time of year when we celebrate Harvest. When we remember all the good things God has provided for us. One of the things we do to help us thank God for Harvest is sing songs. One of our favourites is Autumn Days. Below you can read the words and sing along with the piano accompaniment.
