Preparing for Sunday

(Lectors & Intercessor) Please read from the screen on Sunday

Find the lessons appointed for Sunday - here >

Sunday's readings affirm God’s promise of continuing relationship. In Genesis, life begins anew, sealed by God’s promise to all creatures and confirmed by the rainbow. The author of 1 Peter explains that we are saved through the cleansing water of baptism. In today’s gospel, Jesus’ forty days of temptation in the wilderness end with the proclamation of God’s good news.

Make a Prayer Request

It would be very helpful if, when the need for urgent prayers has passed, you would let us know so that our list does not become too cumbersome to manage. Thank you :) [email protected]

Request Communion

If you would like to receive Holy Communion, email by Friday to [email protected]

Include (copy, paste and complete):
