Advent 2024 (1600 x 640 px)God Who Is

Christmas is a time of hope. It is a time when we remember the miraculous story of Jesus coming to Earth, as God’s masterplan, to bring a helpless, selfish, misguided people the reminder that they are loved by God and that He wants to spend eternity with them.
 
It is a time to remember the promises of the Old Testament of God’s faithful, lasting presence; it is a time to remember the joy held in the New Testament as a Spirit-fuelled church begins to blossom and share the Good News of Jesus to a world in need. It is a time for us in the 21st century to be assured that we trust and follow a God Who Is with us in all of life.
