Throughout our current series we've been returning to Micah 6:8 which says: He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? This Sunday, Pete was speaking on the final part of this verse; walking humbly with God.

One of the key hallmarks of the people of God was (and is) that there should be no one in need in the church. As we continue our CHANGED series, Sam will be helping us to consider how can we respond as the cost of living crisis impacts people in our church families.

This morning, we heard Jesus' words recorded in Luke 6:31-36 and considered what they tell us about God's call for us to be a people who love mercy.

As our communities face the impact of the cost of living crisis, we believe this is a pivotal moment for us to prepare ourselves to support people in our churches and our town. In week two of our series, Sam spoke on Matthew 6: 5-34 as we listened to Jesus words about the providence of God.

As our communities face the impact of the cost of living crisis, we believe this is a pivotal moment for us to prepare ourselves to support people in our churches and our town. God’s people have always been called to be a people of kindness and mercy and over the next six weeks we’re expectant that we will grow in this calling, as we search the scriptures and pray together. In week 1, we begin with Micah 6:8 and consider what it means to be people who do justice. The song that Sam played can be found here: https://bit.ly/3W2EGLq

We had the Canterbury Christian Schools Work Trust with us this morning to share news and stories about the wonderful things that God is doing in and through the trust in our local schools. Find out more about the CCSWT on their website: https://ccswtinfo.wordpress.com/

This Sunday we spent our morning together exploring what it is to be the family of God. * The story Sam reads is from The Jesus Storybook Bible by Sally Lloyd-Jones. * We're also very grateful for other resources used throughout the morning by Sam and Sarah Hargreaves from Engage Worship.

On Sunday we took some time to pause and reflect on what we had been exploring together as a Church over the summer months.

This week, Pete continued along the topic of having a culture of honour, being those who look to bless others.

We're spending this summer looking at loving God and loving our neighbours. This Sunday, Pete was speaking on having a culture of honour.

On the Saturday of our weekend together, Grantley and Floss opened the floor for questions.

During our Naturally Supernatural Weekend, Grantley shared a quick encouragement around the prophetic.

As we gathered on Sunday morning for the fourth and final session of our Naturally Supernatural Weekend, Grantley and Floss spoke on building a faith adventuring community.

In session 3 of our Naturally Supernatural Weekend, Grantley and Floss led us through a time of exploring how to overcome disappointment.

The Saturday of our Naturally Supernatural Weekend started with a session on being a 'Spirit Filled People.'

As we continue with our 'Love Faversham' focus, Sam led us through a time in Matthew 22 as we explored Jesus answer to the question of what is the greatest commandment.

This morning, Sam shred the heart behind our 'Love Faversham' summer focus. He started by taking us to 1 Corinthians 13 as we asked the question, 'What's love got to do with it?'

We were delighted to have Grantley and Floss Watkins from Hope Community Church, Wymondham, with us for our Naturally Supernatural Weekend. Over 3 days, they taught us about being a Spirit led people and how to build a faith-adventuring community. The weekend started with a session on the Apostolic foundations for signs and wonders.
