Thy Kingdom Come at Midday
As a Church we were part of the global prayer venture – Thy Kingdom Come.
This prayer continues around the world!

Each Sunday at Midday we will re-visit one of the 11 daily themes….and this time we revisit the children’s videos with the Cheeky Pandas!
This week it is the theme of THANKS – as we are encouraged to offer our songs of thanksgiving for all the blessings God has given

Daily Devotions for February 2022
To the only God, who alone is wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever! Amen.
Romans 16 verse 27
During 2022 we are looking daily at the theme of GOOD NEWS as we journey with Paul through his letter to the ROMANS – and pausing at our times of Midday Devotion to pray for others in our church family, our city and our world.
We will be reminded that God’s Good News is ALL ABOUT JESUS as we dig a bit deeper into Romans!
We are all encouraged to listen for God’s voice and make our response as we journey together in our ‘rhythm of devotion’
These Devotions are but one way to feed on God’s Word in the morning, at midday, in the evening… to pray with Him continually through the day and even to share with others the treasures or hurdles you discover.
The Church website and Facebook page (even on a handy mobile) provide a fuller daily devotional page. However it all follows the pattern below which the information provided fits into, based on the Kirk’s origins of the Celtic and Northumbrian traditions which we started as a church family in 2015.
