Pentecost

As we celebrate Pentecost - the coming of the Spirit and the Birthday of the Church, we reflect upon the fact that Jesus commanded his followers to go out and spread the news that his dying and rising again gives us all the opportunity to begin a new life following God's standards rather than the world's. Here in Droitwich the church is aware of the fact that to reach all people with God's love is a daunting task. The first Pentecost reminds us, however, that this task is not something we do on our own, rather it is someting we join in with alongside God's leading Spirit.
Sheila mentioned last week that we are launching the next stage in our process of looking at how we can engage with our local community and demonstrate our faith in action. This is something we do under the guidance of God's Spirit, recognising the gifts and talents we each have, and listening to where and how God wants us to use them.
If you would like any more information about how you can be involved, please get in touch.
