As I write to you today the world we live in can seem as though it is in a constant state of stress as people suffer through wars, natural disasters, climate change, cost of living crisis, homelessness and violence. However, we as Christians know the Hope we have in our loving God who, once He had created the world, looked back and declared that it was ‘Good’.

During Lent this year we have been encouraged through Hope 25 that we need to remember that the love of our awesome God never fails us. He is there watching over us especially in times of great difficulties. He sent His Son Jesus Christ to intercede for us, and the Holy Spirit to be our guide and comforter, to live within us. To teach us to be loving, caring people, to love our neighbours, to care for the environment, the homeless, and those who are feeling unloved. May the love of Christ shine through us by the way we live our lives and share that love with others.
We look forward to the MW52 weekend 29-31 August 25. Graham Eagleton as Lay Director is getting his team together ready for commissioning 3rd May at Glenrock. The program for this weekend will be a bit different. We will be trialing a 2-day weekend this year, starting Friday night and ending Sunday evening. We have stepped out in Faith and Hope in a way to encourage people to attend and in an attempt to make it affordable for everyone. We still have a vacancy on Secretariat, as we need an applications coordinator to receive all Cursillo application forms.
Please continue to pray for new candidates and also for your Secretariat as we continue to work in Hope and Love.
