Together Sharing Christ’s Love
Welcome to:
Redeemer, Macalister
St Mark’s, Dalby
Liturgical Colour: Green
The Sundays after Pentecost (known as the "non-festival" season of the church year) are the Sundays in which we concentrate on the growth of the church.
They begin with Trinity Sunday, and ends with "Christ the King" Sunday, where we focus on the end times, and the second coming of our Lord Jesus.
The Gospel lessons for this season concentrate on the teaching and ministry of Jesus. The Old Testament and Epistle lessons have a semi-continuous narrative, with the Revised Common Lectionary (which we customarily use) giving two options for the Old Testament lessons, either the stories of the Patriarchs through Genesis and Exodus, or the Prophets.
The liturgical colour for the Sundays after Pentecost (which comprises roughly half of the church year) is green, as this symbolises new life and growth.

Prayer Points for the Week:
for the church, that it may not seek to acquire riches and assets but use the gifts that God has given for his glory and the extension of his kingdom
for the people of the church, that they may not seek to accumulate wealth as a form of security but seek God and the promise he gives through Christ our Lord
for the government, that it may approach the support of the poor with solutions of healing and not with band-aid decisions
for those who are unemployed, that they may find fulfilment and continue to be motivated even in the face of so many knock-backs, and for those whose work places have uncertain futures, that they may know well in advance if there will be a closure
for the owners of businesses that have uncertain futures
for those trapped in the world of gambling
for those who are homeless, whose income doesn't allow them to acquire the basics of life
