We live in a world that needs a whole lot of love, love of others particularly those who are homeless, persecuted and exploit by the greedy and selfish.
St Paul tells us: “Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong but rejoices in right. (1 Corinthians 13.4-6.). We pray that our world can be filled with a love that drives out hate and violence.

Prayer

We celebrate the birth of Jesus whose message was of love and peace. We have the knowledge that through all the changes in our lives and the world in which we live you are with us. We give thanks to our God for his loving presence that is always with us. Lord we sometimes wonder why we must go through difficult time in our lives which can lead us to forget that you are by our side in the good time as well as the bad. Help us through your Holy Spirit to place our complete trust in you. Guide us in how we led our lives. Help us to show to all people even the one’s will find it difficult to like your love, care and compassion. Thank you, Lord, for always being with us and the love you showed us through the life and ministry of Jesus.  

​​Amen.

​ In Times of Political change.

In this time of political change and turmoil it is important to remember the teaching that we should love our neighbour and welcome the stranger. The recent elections have caused friction within communities and things have been said which people may come to regret. When we live in a community whether it be large or small, it is important to care for our neighbour even if they have different political view to yourself. We all need to remember in this season of good will to all people, that if there is a disaster it will be your neighbour who will help you, not politicians. Our neighbours are there for us when things go wrong and that’s why it is important for us to care for each other and not let political division separate communities.
