To know Christ and to share Christ

Welcome to Grace Church Highlands!

Dear Friends,

Summer 2015

For many of us the summer months bring not only a season of warmer
weather but also a season of endings and new beginnings. So for some,
exams bring to an end a season of study to be followed by new beginnings
in new subjects with new horizons beckoning in new schools, universities
and jobs. This summer also brings a General Election with a new government of, as yet, unknown political persuasion. I hope that we will use our
vote wisely after prayerful consideration of the policies and character of the
candidates and parties they represent.
With such changes ahead, it is therefore an appropriate season for us to be
looking at the book of Daniel in our sermon series. Despite Gods people
being in exile in a pagan land, the hand of the sovereign LORD is clearly
seen throughout, so that even the great King Darius is forced to declare,
He is the living God and he endures for ever; his kingdom will not
be destroyed, his dominion will never end. He rescues and he
saves; he performs signs and wonders in the heavens and on the
earth. (6v26)
As a church family, whatever new beginnings lie ahead, we continue to
trust the loving sovereignty of the LORD
our God.
Please do make Sunday 7th June a priorityfor our Open Church and FunDay
Sunday.
Yours in Christ,
Andy Wadsworth
