Thanks to all those who prayed for me when I preached my first sermon at our All Age servie at the end of March.
The theme was the Word of God and what it means to speak of Jesus as 'The Word'.
So, here it is. All feedback welcome....

We're in the Telegraph!!
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/letters/5182652/Council-budgets-can-easily-be-trimmed-without-endangering-essential-services.html
Tomorrow the House of Lords will be debating Government proposals to double stakes and prizes on Category C and D gaming machines.
An alliance of 9 UK Christian organizations (including the Church of England and the Salvation Army) are calling on the Government to reject these proposals. If the proposals are accepted the prize limit on pub fruit machines will be higher than weekly benefit levels, at a time when many families will be struggling to make ends meet.
The campaign’s website is www.fruitless.org.uk and our recent press releases are here: http://methodist.org.uk/index.cfm?fuseaction=opentogod.newsDetail&newsid=333 and here: http://methodist.org.uk/index.cfm?fuseaction=opentogod.newsDetail&newsid=338.
Let's hope the Lords see sense on this one....
