They are beacons of hope for all in the Parish, as the love of God in Jesus Christ is proclaimed in ways which connect the greatest love story on earth, about sacrifice, self-denial and service, with life in the 21st century. I invite you to come inside these walls and be with our Congregation whose hope and prayer is to be a channel of God’s peace. Here you will experience friendship and fellowship alongside the transforming love of Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and in Scripture. ‘Come unto me,’ said Jesus, ‘all of you who are heavy-laden and I will give you rest. I am the Bread of Life.’ The Reverend John Murdoch Minister of Colvend, Southwick and Kirkbean |
