Did you know the Methodist Church starts a new Connexional Year each September?

Today, as we mark the start of the Connexional Year, we invite you to take a moment to pause and reflect on the story you want to tell in the year ahead. Whether you are about to embark on something new or if today is just another Monday, to ask what song God is calling you to sing.

Today is Good Friday, the day Jesus was condemned to death and nailed to a cross. We remember Jesus' suffering and sacrifice as He shows us the ultimate act of love.

Jesus had done something so significant it was going to change everything...
