Sunday Worship for 13th September 2020 – Choosing Forgiveness

This Sunday our service is led by Lay Preacher Karen Smith. As we continue to explore Creation Time, Karen takes us on a tour of her cottage garden, sharing those places where she has felt close to God. We explore the garden to the sounds of the birds, squirrels, and Whistler the Old English Sheepdog, reflecting on how difficult we may find Choosing Forgiveness in our daily and faith life.

Special thanks to our readers, Philip Le Fanu and Tom Dean, from Beacon Hill URC. Also, many thanks to Sam Goodman for giving us permission to use his hymn, Let All Creation Praise Our Lord Above, this week.
