Theme for Today: Raising up

 

Welcome! Those of us who worship and minister in the three churches of The Glen Group pray that your visit will have brought you closer to the God whom we have learned to love and serve. A children’s corner has been set-aside in each of our churches for children to sit and play. At Communion, please bring the children forward for a blessing and a sticker. We invite all who are confirmed or full members of any Christian church to share in Communion.

The Church of England maintains the historic threefold ministry of bishops, priests and deacons. The ministry of a deacon is to be a servant, both within the Church and in the wider community. A person who is accepted for ordination as a priest is first ordained as a deacon. Then, after a period of normally a year, he or she is ordained to the priesthood. This reminds us that humble service is always at the heart of priestly ministry. Their ministry encapsulates the servant nature of all Christian ministry (From the Ministry Division of the Archbishops’ Council).
