Ministry Letter in Easter Season

Dear Friends,

Have you ever been gripped by a book you can’t put down? A good story speaks to something inside of us, and keeps us reading until the last page.

Stories are an important way in which we make sense of the world, and Christians believe that our individual lives are wrapped up within a ‘bigger story’, one in which love is stronger than death, and good overcomes evil. This is the message of the Resurrection of Christ, which we remember in a special way at Easter. The exciting thing about this story is that the last page has not yet been written – we are invited into the drama, to play our part in God’s reconciling, redeeming, and empowering love.

I’d like to highlight the following services and events that are happening across the Western Dales during this season – you’d be welcome to join in as we celebrate the story of God’s love throughout Easter:
