Sunday 31st August - The Eleventh Sunday after Trinity - Laura.

Sunday 24th August 2025

This Sunday, 17th August, our sermon will be a virtual sermon provided by Dr. Alex Wimberley from ‘The Corrymeela Community’ which is one of the missions we at St John’s support as part of our Mission giving.

Alex became Leader at Corrymeela in August 2019 and he spoke about integration in Northern Ireland schools to our congregation in June 2021.

We at St John’s have been very lucky that Alex has kindly obliged us by providing Virtual Sermons twice before for us and has once again provided another virtual sermon for us this coming Sunday based on the gospel reading from John 21:1-19.

 During Hazel’s tenure as Chair of the Missions Committee £25,000 was raised for Corrymeela by our church community which is a fantastic figure and they are so grateful for our continued support.

 This year in May Corrymeela celebrated 60 wonderful years. Corrymeela is formed of people of all ages and Christian traditions who, individually and together, are committed to the healing of social, religious and political divisions that exist in Northern Ireland and throughout the world.

Sunday 3rd August 2025

Revd John Edward preaches on Colossians 2.6-15. John asks us to imagine drawing a picture of God. What would that be like. A man with a beard, or an image of Jesus? He unpacks the verse "For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have come to fullness in him, who is the head of every ruler and authority." He talks about "Jesus, the image of the invisible God".

In Luke 10 Jesus sends out the 70 with no money, no bag, and no purse. Revd Laura tells us about when she set off with a few friends on a pilgrimage from Trafalgar Square to Wokingham , without money, phone or food. They travelled in faith. L:isten to what happened.
