Weekly News – w/c 29 July

PLEASE PRAY for leaders everywhere. Those who lead countries, companies, charities and churches. Help them to see the value of servant leadership putting the good of those they lead before their personal ambitions.

READ THE GOOD NEWS – Luke 12, 13-21
A taxi driver reminded me of this passage two days ago so a coincidence (or God-incidence) it’s the gospel reading for this week. An abundance of possessions doesn’t define us, or show God’s blessings on us. We are blessed when we do not store up things for ourselves on earth.
