A community in Christ seeking and sharing transforming grace, reconciling love and compassionate hope
Those who originated with us at Christ Church may well know that for sometime I have been going to a monthly Bible study group led by Phyllis Wilmoth. Each month we have taken it in turns to prepare a study on one of the books of the Bible, working through in order. I joined the […]
On Saturday several of our group met up at Karlie and Kevin’s house for lunch together. The main aim was to get to know some of those who are beginning the RCIA with a view to joining the Roman Catholic Church via the Ordinariate. It also gave them the opportunity to get to know us […]
Yesterday was the saint’s day of St Gregory the Great. The reading, taken from one of his sermons, provides an interesting reflection on the readings from Sunday. It also decribes the tensions of pastoral work and the advantages of the monastic life. Here is a reminder that the rhythm of life in a monastry supports […]
As Julianne explained in previous posts, she and I found Jo Gilbert’s seminar on Koinonia community at the Celebrate conference interesting in the light of previous discussion in our group. Since then I’ve also been exploring ideas around community and the Benedictine rule. The website of the Lay Community of St. Benedict: www.laybenedictines.org has been […]
Listening to my Spanish CDs this weekend reminded me of something. The teacher introduced the informal way of talking by describing it as the “thou” form. Many years ago, when studying Medieval literature for my degree, I was taught that thou came to be used in informal or familiar circumstances. “Thou” form of pronouns were […]
I am struck time and time again by the fact that God gives us what we need when we need it. There is a synchronicity sometimes in the way we experience the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Recently, while at the Celebrate Conference I bought a book called ‘The Rule of Saint […]

Jesus answered Simon Peter, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was pregnant and ... gave birth to a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne, and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God. And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, ‘Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come.’

We’re serving bacon butties after Mass on Sunday, to extend the fellowship and have the opportunity to bid farewell to Fr John, who is returning to Nigeria.
Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, ‘Lord, save me.’ Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, ‘O you of little faith, why did you doubt?’ And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. And those in the boat worshipped him, saying, ‘Truly you are the Son of God.’
