High and lows - that’s life.

This Sunday we engage the story of Jesus high on the mountain, so close to God that his face shone. Then, next week, we enter the season of Lent and the path to the cross.

What are we to make of that?

See you in church on Sunday where transformation has been known to occur and joy to erupt. Plus music that will bring a smile to your face, a tap to your toes and leave the heart strangely warmed.

God has a place for you and so do we.
- Rev. Keith
