Saturday 19th September: 10.00 AM – 2.00 PM – with coffee morning ☕
We would love for you to join us this coming Sunday, 20th September at 10:00am for our special ‘All-In’ Communion service at St Michael & All Angels Church, Houghton-le-Spring.
Whether you are a regular member of our congregation, haven’t been in a while, or are joining us for the very first time—please know that you are deeply welcome.
🎁 Our Theme: A Gift for Everyone
This week, we are focusing on the beautiful truth that we are all part of one community and of equal value to God. In a world that often divides people, our service will celebrate the fact that every single person brings something unique to our church family, and everyone is loved equally by God. There are no outsiders here.
We have three different services this Sunday. Please come to the one that fits your schedule best:
- 8:30 AM – Holy Communion
Join us for a peaceful start to the day. This service will be led by Rev’d Judith Howes. - 10:00 AM – Holy Communion
Come together for our main morning worship. This service will be led by Rev’d John Barron, Rev’d Sue Elsey and our Reader, Ros Pickergill. - 6:00 PM – Celtic Prayer
A sung service drawing on liturgy from the Celtic Christian Tradition.
. Led by Rev’d Sue Elsey
We look forward to worshipping, sharing communion, and gathering together as a community this Sunday.
With my prayers and best wishes,
Lord of creation,
whose glory is around and within us:
open our eyes to your wonders,
that we may serve you with reverence
and know your peace at our lives’ end,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen
