On another very windy Sunday we gathered for our Sunday Eucharist.

Father Stephen preached today.  He told us that his first ever sermon discussed the Transfiguration. This was when he was still at college. Whichever version we read in the Gospels, they all tell the same story. Go up the mountain (possibly Ebor).  Whenever you ascend a mountain, you leave behind the noise of everyday life and enter into a different realm. Fear, delight, awe and wonder are all present. In the Hebrew bible, God is encountered on a mountain. Jesus is transfigured on the mountain and joined by Moses, the law giver, and Elijah, the still small voice. During the transfiguration, Jesus's body, face and clothing all take on a glowing white. The disciples find that all is revealed to them in Calvary and the Resurrection.  After the event the disciples are prepared for the future glory that awaits us all



This Wednesday, 26th February, there will be a service for Ash Wednesday at 7.30pm

There are Lenten discussions on Thursday evenings starting in March.  Please sign the list at the back of the church if you would like to attend.
