Together Sharing Christ’s Love
Welcome to:
Redeemer, Macalister
St Mark’s, Dalby
Liturgical Colour: Green
The Sundays after Pentecost (known as the "non-festival" season of the church year) are the Sundays in which we concentrate on the growth of the church.
They begin with Trinity Sunday, and ends with "Christ the King" Sunday, where we focus on the end times, and the second coming of our Lord Jesus.
The Gospel lessons for this season concentrate on the teaching and ministry of Jesus. The Old Testament and Epistle lessons have a semi-continuous narrative, with the Revised Common Lectionary (which we customarily use) giving two options for the Old Testament lessons, either the stories of the Patriarchs through Genesis and Exodus, or the Prophets.
The liturgical colour for the Sundays after Pentecost (which comprises roughly half of the church year) is green, as this symbolises new life and growth.

Prayer Points for the Week:
· for the church and its witnesses as God’s people and his sanctuary on earth
· for the unity of the church in confession and worship for the glory of God
· for the church and its steadfastness in the faith, that it will recognise false teachers before they lead people astray
· for those nations that war against each other, that they would find peace through understanding rather than fighting
· for the nations and their people who have been victims of natural disasters
· for those who have lost family and homes and are without the essentials of life, like food and clean water. Protect them from outbreak of diseases and heal them and eliminate disease from around them
