Sunday 16th December – Holy Communion for Advent 3

Luke 3.7-18 John the Baptist shares three kinds of teaching: a warning to the crowds not to rely on their religious pedigree, advice on some simple ways to live justly, and a prophetic promise about the greatness of the one who is to come.

This week’s readings explore:recognising the need for change; asking ‘What then should we do?’

Today the Liturgy of the Word is led by Frank Strang and the reflection is offered by the Rector, Revd Steve Butler. The celebrant is Revd Ken Webb. The children’s programme is led by Marie-Louise Cochrane.
