Newsletter- 20th June 2021 Sunday after Pentecost

Written by Angus on 17 June 2021.

Good Afternoon All,

Slightly different temperature today than when I wrote last week. One bonus of working for St Columba’s is that the building stays remarkably cool in the heat!

Newsletter- 13th June 2021, 3rd Sunday after Pentecost

Written by Angus on 10 June 2021.

Friends,

Wednesday 9th June was St Columba’s Day, which we marked in church last Sunday. So, last week’s newsletter carried a poem by Kenneth Steven who finds Iona, the tiny island much associated with Columba, so inspiring.

Newsletter- 30th May 2021, Trinity Sunday

Written by Angus on 28 May 2021.

Friends,

1 30th may 21

This Sunday is Trinity Sunday, a day to dwell on the trinitarian /threefold nature of God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It expresses the Christian understanding/verdict, “once all the evidence is in.” Yet, however deeply, or not, we think about God, we can never fully describe, explain or “capture” God; no human language has the breadth or fluency to achieve that. There is always more to learn and much that we may never understand.

Newsletter- 23rd May 2021

Written by Lucy Llewellyn on 20 May 2021.

Friends,

23 may 21 01

Two prayers for us as we approach the weekend. This Sunday is the Feast of Pentecost. Fifty days after Easter, and ten days after Ascension Day, we mark the gift of the Holy Spirit to the disciples gathered in Jerusalem – sometimes referred to as the birth-day of the Church. A fitting Sunday to celebrate with our friends of the linked charge at St Andrew’s, Newcastle, as they reopen their doors for worship.
