Summer is here! We celebrated an amazing time of worship on Sunday 12th, with 4 little ones being baptised. We were then particularly blessed as over 60 people chose to reaffirm their faith by having baptismal water trickle over them while we sang ‘turn your eyes upon Jesus’ etc. We were all reminded that what needs to be dead in our lives has already died with Christ on the cross, and that we are all called to share in his resurrection life.
