For Wednesday 20th Feb. & Sunday 24th Feb.

Our Lenten devotions continue this week on Wednesday evening, beginning at 7.30pm. As our meditation on the passion continues, we will be contemplating Peter's threefold denial of Christ during His trial before the high priest. Rather than pointing our finger at St Peter, we will remember the ways in which we all 'follow at a distance' and rejoice that our salvation is secured by Christ's faithfulness, not ours.

This Sunday (24th Feb.) we will be having a parish service at Trinity which will be followed by our parish AGM. Divine Service will commence at 10am and will include the baptism of Bodie Jake McCabe.

In preparation, you might like to meditate on these central verses from Sunday's readings:

God proves his love for us in that while we still were sinners Christ died for us. Much more surely then, now that we have been justified by his blood, will we be saved through him from the wrath of God. (Romans 5:8-9).

God's peace,
Pastor Matt
