Dear Worshippers, Friends and Patrons of St. Clement’s,

At St. Clement’s we have always celebrated our diversity, one such occasion was last Sunday- the Feast of Pentecost. We heard ‘The Lord is here. His Spirit is with us’, in thirty different languages. My thanks to those who helped us during the service and lunch.
Now we enter what is known as Ordinary Time, which lasts until All Saints’ Day, 1st November. Often this is known as the ‘green season‘ because green is the liturgical colour that is used during this period. But just to be confusing, the Sunday following Pentecost is always kept as Trinity Sunday, when we use white & gold :-) After that, we then start counting ‘Sundays after Trinity’. Following that little explanation of liturgical colours and the Christian Year, a reminder of our worship this coming Sunday.
Sunday 27th May at 11.00 – Sung Eucharist for Trinity Sunday
Our Gospel reading will be John 3. 1-17 where we read Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus at night and supporting readings are Isaiah 6. 1-8, which tells us about Isaiah’s vision of the Lord in the temple and Romans 8. 12-17 the verses speak of God the Father (Abba), the Son with whom we are joint heirs, and the Spirit who leads the children of God. There will be parallel Children’s Ministry and following worship, Coffee Hour in the hall on the third floor of Klimentska 18.
Then, don’t forget to join us on..
