Pastoral Moment
We hope you enjoyed celebrating Easter this year as much as we did! As the Easter festivities subside (and with it the associated public holiday season), we are reminded that we constantly live our lives in proximity to the empty cross.
Which is just another way of saying ‘Gospel Culture’!

Pastoral Moment
The season is changing: cooler air and warmer colours. I’m not a fan of winter, but Autumn I can do! Beautiful days for being outdoors, enjoying the green before it gets brown. It also means Easter is around the corner!

Gospel Culture
The gospel, when truly believed, doesn’t remain just as a concept in our minds. It travels to our hearts and starts to change the way we see our lives. This will be something of a ‘theme’ for the year, and is called ‘Gospel Culture: Where Faith comes to Life’.

Tidings of Comfort & Joy
My deepest prayer for you, beloved RUC, is that as we approach Christmas Day, the ‘tidings’ of the story of Jesus our Saviour would ‘make you strong and valiant’.

This weekend we dive right into our second major…

One Year On
This weekend we mark the one-year anniversary of the Covid-19 disruption on our Church. It was on 15 March 2020 that we had our last full, unrestricted gathering on a Sunday! In the providence of God we were allowed a significant moment to meet, ‘Lift the Sail’, and head into the uncharted waters of a pandemic.
