Welcome to Sunday 19th April theme built around distraction and peer pressure and finishing on the presence of Christ. With a little reminder not to be swept up by some of our current politic outpourings.

This week includes a ponder on dealing with distraction and contemplating peer pressure, doubt and more with Thomas and others.

Thanks to Heather for the reading from John's Gospel.

For the full service visit Moncreiff Parish Church on YouTube (East Kilbride).

Peace be with you.

Blessings

Sarah

Full of hope and healthy outcomes this week - I hope you find it encouraging and uplifting .

Pondering the wonder of a balanced life style and hopefilled faith. Oh and waxing lyrical about disabled access and nature's life power.

here is the song but available on apple and I'm sure on Spotify!

The Porter's Gate - New Every Morning.

Hi and welcome to the elements from our Sunday service where today we focused on the Road to Emmaus considering disappointment, regret and God's role in it all. We are grateful for Jesus' infinite patience with us but we considered the importance of Word, of Sacrament and of Fellowship and how we might bubble over with enthusiasm in our faith.

It is important to recognise the reality of disappointment and how even as people, perhaps especially as people of faith we can feel distant from God.

Hopefully this is helpful and inspiring.

Remember God loves you.

Love Sarah
