Simeon and Anna were promised they would see the Lord. They waited and waited… and the promise was fulfilled in Luke chapter 2. Revd. Geoff Davis takes a step back in time, shares his story and asks us how does the examples of Simeon and Anna inspire us as we wait and trust in God’s promises through our Christian journeys? 

In the Week of Prayer for Christian unity, Revd Amanda Denniss, one of our congregation, explores why Jesus’ final command that his people be one is so important. Why is unity more than just being nice, but something radical, subversive, and transformative of our lives, our church, and our wider world?

In today’s All In service, one of our curates, David, refers to the story of Jesus’ baptism as told in Luke 3:15-22.  He reminds us that in baptism, we are welcomed into God’s family. Jesus’ baptism gives us an insight into what that means on both a human and divine level. 

As we start the new year and license Geoff Davis for new ministry in Falmouth, Bishop Hugh refers to Matthew chapter 2 to share his thoughts about the 5 seeds that are offered to us to bear fruit in our lives.

Christmas: we know the readings, we know the songs and we hear again and afresh the invitation to know the God they point to, the God’s who’s come to us.
