Rev Reuben James Preston
We gather here today, just as the disciples gathered following the momentous news that Jesus had risen from the dead. We encounter the risen Jesus in word and sacrament, and affirm our faith in the living God. “Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands, and put my finger in the mark of the nails and my hand in his side, I will not believe.” John 20:25

As we continue through Lent, we learn more about what it means for Jesus to be the Saviour of the world. Today, as we reflect on one of the most famous verses in scripture, we ask God to help us see the world as God sees it – both loved and saved. “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.” John 3:16

As our Lenten journey leads us towards the cross, we give thanks for God’s continuous concern for creation. Through worship and Communion may we draw closer to each other, standing as equals before bread and wine, symbols of God’s enduring and universal love. “His disciples remembered that it was written, ‘Zeal for your house will consume me." John 2:17

At the start of this second week of Lent we start to walk with Jesus towards his Passion, and we ask what taking up our cross might mean for us. ‘If any want to become my disciples, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.’ Mark 8. 34b)

The Holy Spirit, who drove Jesus into the wilderness after his baptism, guides and inspires us today. As we open our hearts in prayer and praise, let us ask for grace to experience the kingdom of God this Lent. “And he was with the wild beasts.” Mark 1:13

What should I expect when I visit the church?

You will receive a warm welcome particularly from our Stewards who will be able to answer your questions and direct you to where you need to go. 

For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early to ensure you get a parking space and find somewhere to sit before the service begins.

Our services include time for reflection, singing, prayers, Bible readings and a sermon. Our weekly readings and service content are published on a Saturday afternoon in our Weekly Pew Sheet.   

On Sunday's after the service, we serve tea, coffee and biscuits (or cake!) This is a great way to meet people, or simply take time to find your bearings. All refreshments are free.

Accessibility: There is wheelchair access which is via a ramp to the side of the Church. When you arrive on the grounds, someone will direct you. There is also a sound loop for anyone who needs it. Please let one the steward know on your arrival and they will help you to get set up. 

There is also a disabled toilet in the hall which is accessible from the Church.

What happens to the kids at church?

At St Margaret's we love to see children come along to church and we do have a small number of children who come along on a Sunday morning. We have dedicated kids section in the church where there is a bit more room for them to roam and some toys, books and colouring sheets to keep them entertained if the are not enjoying the Sermon!

Is there a dress code?

No! Please just be yourself and come dressed in clothes that make you feel comfortable.   

Will I have to join in?

Not at all! You are free to simply observe or participate as much as feels comfortable for you.

 
If you would like to come and visit the church beforehand you are more than welcome! Get in touch and we can arrange a time that suits you.
