Dear Worshippers, Friends and Patrons of St. Clement’s,
Do join us for worship this coming Sunday..
Sunday 26th August starting at 11.00 – Sung Eucharist for The Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity
The Gospel reading is John 6. 56-69 where Jesus goes on to interpret about himself as the ”bread of life” but the disciples declare this to be a ‘difficult teaching’ and we also read Peter’s confession of Jesus as the Holy one of God. The supporting readings are 1 Kings 8. 22-30, 41-43 which contains King Solomon’s prayer at the dedication of the Jerusalem Temple and Ephesians 6. 10-20 where Paul talks about the spiritual warfare and tells his readers to put on the whole armour of God. During worship, the Baptism of a baby girl will take place.
Following worship, Cool Drinks and Light Refreshments will be served at the back of the church.
Other important things..
