Latest Thought for the Week

I’m finally reading Michelle Obama’s fascinating and inspiring book ‘Becoming’.

I was moved by an article I read this week by Rabbi Jonathan Romaine about the recent death by drowning of his 34-year-old son.

St Martin’s Justice, Peace and Integrity of Creation group recently watched a talk on the current situation in Israel/Palestine by Rev Munther Isaac, Dean of Bethlehem Bible College.

‘What do you want to be when you grow up?’ ‘Kind’, said the boy.

On my first day at St Martin’s I had lunch with the Disability Advisory Group (DAG) after the Parish Eucharist.

Happy New Year to everyone at St Martin’s.

Like many, my reaction to fireworks is to stare dumbfounded (although pet owners will also know of their ability to frighten some animals to the core).

Unless you love online comments sections, there are few debates more tedious than the dating of Christmas.

We have just spent the last 4 Sundays in Advent, a time of waiting and wanting for Christmas to come.
