All welcome for a cup of tea Friday, 12th September Saturday, 13thSeptember John Chrysostom, Bishop of Constantinople, Teacher of the faith, 407 In the Parish cycle of prayer we pray for those living in:- Howbeck Road, Hughes Lane, Ince Close. THE COLLECT O Lord, we beseech you mercifully to hear the prayers of your people who call upon you; and grant that they may both perceive and know what things they ought to do, and also may have grace and power faithfully to fulfil them; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. THE NEW TESTAMENT READING A Reading from the Letter of Paul to the Romans Chapter 13 verses 8 to the end Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery; You shall not murder; You shall not steal; You shall not covet”; and any other commandment, are summed up in this word, “Love your neighbour as yourself.” Love does no wrong to a neighbour; therefore, love is the fulfilling of the law. Besides this, you know what time it is, how it is now the moment for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we became believers; the night is far gone, the day is near. Let us then lay aside the works of darkness and put on the armour of light; let us live honourably as in the day, not in revelling and drunkenness, not in debauchery and licentiousness, not in quarrelling and jealousy. Instead, put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires. The Gospel Reading is: Matthew 18 vv 15 to 20 TIME OUT FOR PARENTS/TODDLERS/BABIES There is a rest / play area available in the hall in the parish centre for use during the 9.30 am service. If your child does become restless please do feel free to go out and use these facilities at anytime during the service. Another parent is usually there to help.
