It was good to see so many people from far and wide visit the Church today. A big thank you to everyone who made the Church's open day for the Festival of the Fleeces such a lovely experience for everyone. Thank you to all who provided floral displays and artwork, and welcomed visitors into the church.

On the night of Jesus' Last Supper with his disciples, "while they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins." Matthew 26:26-28

At Holy Communion or the Eucharist (Thanksgiving) we recall Jesus' once and for all, for all people, sufficient sacrifice, so that as believers in Jesus' promises, we may share in life for all eternity. We do this almost weekly in our churches in the Upper Hunter, as a reminder of our deep and abiding relationship with Jesus Christ, who gave his life for the sake of the whole world.

Our Upper Hunter Minster Churches will celebrate the Feast of Thanksgiving for Holy Communion (in Latin Corpus Christi) on Sunday, 7 June:

St Alban's Muswellbrook at 9.30am
St Paul's Murrurundi at 9.30am
Holy Trinity Merriwa at 10.00am

On Trinity Sunday we celebrate that God, the Holy Trinity, is relational. The relational life of God is what we as the community of faith or the church are called to reflect in the world; modelling participation, communion, fellowship, and shared lives. The Trinity of God, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, is our model, for justice, peace, and living in relationship with one another. In the image of the Trinity, we are most fully human when we live authentically as people of reconciliation and love.

As depicted in the famous Rublev icon, the Trinity invites us - each and every one of us - to take our seat at the table.

As the Apostle Paul concludes his second letter to the Corinthians: “Finally, brothers and sisters, farewell. Put things in order, listen to my appeal, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the saints greet you. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with all of you.”

Worship in the Upper Hunter Minster Churches on Sunday, 31 May:
St Alban’s Muswellbrook at 9.30am
St Paul’s Murrurundi at 10.00am
Holy Trinity Merriwa at 10.00am
St Matthias Denman at 10.00am

EVERYONE IS WELCOME!
