Jesus told this parable: ‘Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. (Luke 18:9-10, NIV)
Jesus starts a parable about two men going to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. By the time we get to the end of it, one of them goes home right before God, and the other does not. Which one is which would have surprised the original hearers, and might also surprise us. I hope you'll be able to join us this Sunday as we see how we can be right before God.
You would be very welcome at our 10:30am service in St Andrew, Cuffley or at 9am for a service of Holy Communion in St Thomas, Northaw, this Sunday.
The 10:30am service will also be streamed. This will start at 10:25am, and can be accessed directly via YouTube or Facebook, found on our website, and is advertised on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.
Children’s Church
There is no children’s church this Sunday, as we all meet together in St Andrew.
Rotas
We very much value and appreciate all the different people that welcome and help with refreshments, and the different voices that we hear from the front. We always welcome new people to these roles, even if infrequently, and we have some spaces at the moment. If you don’t already help, and this would be something you would like to do, please talk to Chris.
We’re currently using self-signup for the various rotas: blank rotas will be pinned up at the back of St Andrew. If you are one of our regular welcomers, readers, pray-ers, communion assistants, or refreshment helpers, please do sign up where you are able to.
Rotas for services in June and July are now available. Readings are pinned on the board for you to take.
Stay & Play
Our church school, Northaw School, runs 'Stay and Play' every Thursday from 9-10:15am during term time. This is a free event, and open to children aged 0-5.
Bible Reading Resources
There are a lot of resources available online to help with Bible reading. A few of them are here, in case they are helpful for you.
Home Communion
If you’re not able to join us on Sundays, and would appreciate a visit with Holy Communion, please be in touch with Chris.
Coffee Shop
Our weekly Coffee Shop will be taking place this Wednesday from 10:30 in St Andrew, you are very welcome to join us.
