Tomorrow at the earlier time of 10am.

A light hearted discussion with space to ask questions and consider what the Bible says.

It would be lovely to see as many people there as can make it. Do feel free to bring a friend as this is a time when we can ask questions and understand our faith more.

On National Food Bank Day, the URC joins with www.trussell.org.uk and other food providers to raise awareness of food insecurity and encourage donations and volunteering at local food banks.

A prayer for National Food Bank Day

Caring God,
who created a world that was good,
and harvests that were sufficient,
you provided manna to the hungry,
and took pity on the needy and weary.

As food banks open their doors again today,
we offer our thanks for all who strive to end food insecurity –
for volunteers, and food doners, and campaigners,
for politicians and health workers.
Yet we cry out, also –
β€˜Why, oh why?’
In a world of plenty,
in nations with great wealth,
we weep for the injustices of inequality
and for dignity worn down by handouts.
We pray for the day when Food Banks are no more,
when all know what β€˜enough’ looks like,
and when your love-through-action
is seen on tables with food to share
and in heads held high.
Amen.

β€œWe've been told that the site is on lockdown, with people not allowed to get in or out,” said Premier's James Lewis, who is at the festival.

This has been a week of tears.

In Nepal and Tibet, catastrophic floods have swept away lives, homes and communities. At Big Church Festival, a man lost his life, others were injured, and thousands witnessed scenes they will never forget.

Behind every statistic is a name. Behind every name is someone loved. Behind every loss is a story suddenly and painfully changed.

At times like this, words feel very small.

We naturally ask, β€œWhy did God allow this?” I have no neat answer and deep suffering deserves more than easy answers.

We live in a world of miracle and mystery. We believe in the sovereignty of God, yet we do not always understand the ways of God. Faith is not having all the answers; sometimes faith is holding on to God when there are no answers.

Christian faith does not point us to a God who observes suffering from a safe distance. In Jesus, God stepped into our suffering, carried our sorrows and wept beside a grave. The Cross tells us God is with us in the darkness. The Resurrection assures us that darkness will not have the final word.

Today, we hold before God the bereaved, the injured, the missing, the traumatised and all around our world whose lives have been torn apart by tragedy.

An ancient prayer attributed to St Augustine gives us words when ours fail:

β€œKeep watch, dear Lord, with those who wake, or watch, or weep this night. Tend the sick, give rest to the weary, calm the suffering, all for your love’s sake.”

Lord, hold those whose hearts are broken. Give strength for today, hope for tomorrow, and light for the darkness.

Amen.
