So eventually Jesus took all his disciples away for a few days. Away from the crowds he asked them "who do you think I am?"
This picture was released a while ago and claims to be an image of Jesus as he might have been according to "experts" - nothing like the traditional images from paintings.
But who knows? What does matter is not his image but his identity. Who do YOU say he is?
Friday Night - usual place. 7.30 for 8pm. Discuss!

Very Special Guests
We have very special guests this week, all the way from Ghana. Pastor Theo and his wife Monica will be with us at the usual venue. Come early (7p.m.) if you want to join them for a meal, or 8pm otherwise.
They will be very happy to answer (and ask!) questions, so if you want to know what it's like to lead a church in Africa, come along.
They will also be at our United Celebration on Sunday morning at 10 a.m. when we hope everyone from all our congregations will join us! There will be other special guests and announcements too!

Like Trees Walking
Lovely to meet some new friends last night as we were joined by visitors from Halifax who are exploring new ways to reach out for Jesus Christ.
Although we had a hearty meal to say farewell to Robert and Barbara, they are still with us this week when Robert will tell us the tale of how Jesus healed a man at the second attempt. How come it didn't work the first time?
Any thoughts? Write them below and come to discuss. Friday. 7.30 for 8pm.
PS: Watch out for news of some special visitors the following week!

A Sad Farewell
We gather early this week at 7pm to eat together and say a sad goodbye to Robert and Barbara, founder members of the Friday Service as they move to pastures and pubs new.
Food is also on the menu for discussion as we hear the conversation Jesus had with his disciples about bread and yeast. Once again Jesus appears a little rude and impatient with his disciples.
You wouldn't get the Duke of Edinburgh being like that, now, would you?
