Last night's Collation Service

A lovely Collation Service at St Andrew's Wickford last night led by the Bishop of Bradwell - much thanks to everyone involved. Wonderful to be welcomed into my new Parish surrounded by family and friends. The service can be viewed at https://www.facebook.com/WickfordandRunwellCofE/videos/722942612154051.wellCofE/videos/722942612154051

Looking forward to our Joint Service for the Team Ministry at St Andrew's at 10.00 am on Sunday followed by our APCM and a bring and share lunch.

God of renewal and refreshing, we pray for this new season in the life of the Wickford Team Ministry asking that you will be a running well of living water for our three churches, welling up within us and spilling over to bless our communities. We ask that, as you led the People of Israel across the River Jordan into the Promised Land, so, in this town built by a ford, we will also be led by you into the land of promise to experience and share your kingdom of love. 

God of hope, in Jesus you made heaven visible to earth and earth visible to heaven: make your Church a community at the heart of your kingdom alongside those on the edge of society, that each day we may seek your glory, and embody your grace; through Christ our Lord. Amen.
