i shiver me timbers at this time of the year…
but at least it’s just the rain, not huge snow?!

here’s a great offer if you’re named well guess!
Mary and…..!

the concepts that saw 2007 realise!

Moby has a gift for all of us! You can download an extended sampler of his new album Last Night here.

Christmas lights…
…enhance anything.
…have an external power source.
…can be used anytime-not just at Christmas.
…come in all colours.
…can be plugged in by anyone, not just by expert electricians.
…shine no matter who’s around.
…have something wrong with them when they aren’t shinning.

Christmas ministry yesterday saw a whopping three services, after the morning communion celebration where we explored love, peace and light!

‘Where is that Light that shines in the Darkness?
Is it hidden behind a 25ft high separation wall?
Is it trapped without a travel permit?
Is it labelled a fundamentalist, a terrorist?
Or is it weeping over Abraham’s’ children?

Where is that light that shines in the darkness?
Is it hidden by a wall of indifference?
It is trapped behind self-interest and greed?
Is it labelled a victim, of famine, natural disasters and war?
Or is it crying out for justice, truth and compassion?

Where is that light that shines in the darkness?
Is it hidden by a mothers arms?
Is it trapped; a refugee, a displaced person?
Is it labelled as the illegitimate child of a teenage mother?
Or does it come creeping into our midst?

Where is that light that shines in the darkness?
Is it hidden by the lens I see through?
Is it trapped by my self-image?
Is it labelled by my prejudice and mistrust?
Or is it slowly coming into view.’
