Prayers during the Coronavirus Crisis...
Help us to put aside preconceptions about other people, because that alters our behaviour, and simply accept that they, like us, are precious in your eyes.
Loving God, we give thanks for the extended family of local communities assisting with the needs of both frail and elderly confined to their homes. May every gift of love, every encouraging word, bring hope into lonely lives and a blessing to the giver.

Paul's letter
Paul has been looking at "Living Lent" which invites Christians to gather as a community and journey together towards radical change for the climate. It acknowledges that both our lifestyles and choices have played a role in damaging creation and that many of us are desperate for change because we very much hope to see creation flourish as God intended it to. It then asks the all-important question, "So where do we begin?" and offers some practical suggestions.
Newsletter

The short answer is "not a lot". Due to CV19, all church events have either been cancelled or postponed until further notice. Hopefully it won't be too long before we can resume normal service. You may still contact us either by emailing to enquiries@martinway.org.uk or via our Contact us page.
