This Sunday, 26th July, is the 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time when we focus on the ways in which God enables us to grow, flourish and bear fruit despite our smallness and weakness.
The lectionary readings for this Sunday are:
Psalm 105:1-11,45b or Psalm 128
Romans 8:26-39
Matthew 13:31-33,44-52
The collect for this Sunday:
Lord God, your Son left the riches of heaven and became poor for our sake: when we prosper save us from pride, when we are needy save us from despair, that we may trust in you alone; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Our service this week will be Holy Communion at the usual time of 9.30 a.m.
If you can't come to that, or if you would like to spend time thinking about this theme, this video from 2020 provides a short act of worship that you can use at home.
Our regular Book Sale and Coffee Morning continue throughout 2026. Please note the dates of these not-to-be-missed events in your diary. The next one will be on Saturday 12th September.
Searching through one of the filing cabinets in the vestry turned up this interesting document from the past this. It's a newspaper produced by the Sunday School children in 2000 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the setting up of our ecumenical Sunday School back in 1990. Sadly numbers dwindled and the Sunday School closed in 2004, but we are now thinking of ways of getting children and young people involved with St Luke's again. If you have any ideas for doing this please let us know!
