Northfield Methodist Church

Dear Friends
This is the day we celebrate the Risen Christ. Because of this day we have the opportunity to be in a relationship with God in a new way. A way that grows faith, gives hope and shares love. The early Christians were called the "People of the Way."

Dear Friends
We are only two weeks away from Palm Sunday! Just over two weeks away from the remembrance of those defining moments of human history.
How is your personal preparation for Easter proceeding? What did you give up for Lent this year? Traditionally we are to give up something that we really enjoy, like chocolate or coffee or pizzas or movies. If that works for you that is fine!

Dear Friends
Warm greetings.
We welcome you to worship today. As you may know, today is the second Sunday of Lent. We are very aware that many folk are not sure what Lent is all about. Here are a few thoughts that you may find helpful.

Dear Friends,
May this time of Lent be a time of deep spiritual blessing for you.
This last week on Ash Wednesday we began our journey through this time of preparation for Easter. The word Lent comes from the German/Dutch "lente" meaning Spring - because it more or less co-incides with springtime in the Northern hemisphere. It's a lovely image really because we associate Spring with new life, renewal, re-birth.
