Christmas 2024
A CHRISTMAS PRAYER
God of all our days be with us as we celebrate the birth of Jesus who can bring your life to us each and every day.
We remember before you those who are struggling in times of suffering and conflict.
We pray that, with them, we might rest on your eternal changelessness and be reassured by the blessings of Bethlehem’s baby.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
“Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favour rests.”
Luke 2:14
We Send our Christmas Greetings to you All
We have all discovered that the world is changing very fast with new conflicts.
We would like to invite you to share with us in the timeless Christian story that speaks of “the one who is from of old” but who can still be with us in every day of our lives.
Jesus might have been born in Bethlehem many years ago, but he is alive and active with us, bringing stability and hope to our changing world and lives.
Join us with your friends and family at any of our carol services and community events. Celebrating Christ’s birthday might well give birth to new possibilities for all of our lives.
