Saturday Reflection

Dear All, July trundles on……….  I wonder how others are finding these weeks – I feel it is ‘going on a bit’!  I think I long for a ‘normal’ summer – without mention of COVID, infection rates, delta variants & so on.  Our theme today probably reflects something of this.  It is really just thoughts…

Saturday Reflection

Dear All, Our theme today focusses on psalm 22 (23).  There is an alternative translation of it amongst the attachments.  Sometimes a different translation throws a different light on a well-known piece of scripture.  The words of the psalm don’t really need much additional material – they speak very clearly to us of a shepherding…
