PLEASE PRAY for our community as we prepare to welcome visitors for the Meltham Memories weekend. We pray that the positive nostalgia for times passed does not turn into the glorification of war and that through our time spent celebrating together we can continue to pray for and work for peace for all people. Help us to be a Church through faith and deeds.

“But someone will say, ‘You have faith; I have deeds.’ Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.”  (James 2:18)
