Today’s Service
Today we read a passage from Mark Chapter 13 where Jesus speaks about the future.
It can be hard to keep remembering to put your trust in God if you are doing it alone, the invitation here is to remember to keep gathering together to with other people who are on this journey, and encourage each other, because we all go through tough times.
Let's not forget to come together to remind ourselves of why it is we trust in God.
We end our service with Communion, and take a movement to pause and encounter God.
Mark 13:1-8
