Our Online Service for Sunday 14th February 2021.
"Transformed By Love."
Valentine's Day / The Sunday Before Lent.



Hi Folks

I do hope that you're keeping warm as well as safe.

Hopefully our service tomorrow can be a welcome addition to your weekend.  Sharron Ing shares about how the gold in jewellery has greater meaning than just the cost of it, and along with plenty of music and prayer we hope you'll be encouraged.  As usual the premiere will be at 10am on Facebook.

This coming Wednesday is Ash Wednesday - the start of Lent and there are two things to alert you to on that day.  Firstly there will be the second Mission Area Prayer Meeting via Zoom.  It was wonderful that so many supported this last time, so do tune in at 4pm on 17th, through this link which is the same as last time:

Also on Wednesday will be an Ash Wednesday service from St Asaph Cathedral at 7pm, which can be accessed via the Cathedral Facebook page or website.

There is a special Diocesan Prayer for Lent which is this:

Sovereign Lord, 
all our beginnings and endings are encompassed by you.
Help us follow in the footsteps of Christ
and seek your Kingdom with all our hearts.
In Jesus, may we find firm footing for our feet
and clear direction to our travels.
With his life and love breathed into our witness,
may we stand with him,
who, for the joy that was set before him,
endured the cross.
Amen.

Do try to make Lent meaningful and helpful in your own way.  There are lots of further resources if you need them, such as Live Lent God's Story Our Story from the Church of England which provides daily emails if you sign up for them or download the app.

Here is something of interest to help you through Lent and I highly recommend that you visit this page. On our service today, I spoke about "LIVE LENT. Our Story, God's Story", this is a new and amazing resource offered by Church of England and there are a number of great ways you can be inspired by Lent and the teachings. So, Why not CLICK HERE and find out more...

Let me know how you get on.

Keep Safe,
Keep Praying &
Keep Close to Jesus!

God bless you,

Ah ha, FIXED at last. Sorry for the delay, the original video was corrupted by facebook's copyright issues, as a result a new video uploaded with alternative music. We hope you enjoy this version.

Phew....

All the best.
