Sunday was a day of great delight for Rathmichael Church, as we attended Revd Esther’s ordination to the diaconate at Christchurch Cathedral.
It was great to have so many people there to support her.
We look forward to getting to know her more as she begins serving amongst us at the end of the summer.

The doctrine of the Trinity can sometimes feel like a theological puzzle or a math problem. But Trinity Sunday isn’t about celebrating a complex concept—it’s about celebrating the God behind every event in our lives. 🙌

In yesterday’s sermon, we looked at how the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit work together to create us, redeem us, and sustain us. We broke down three core truths:
🔹 God is a mystery bigger than our minds, but worthy of our adoration.
🔹 God isn’t lonely or distant; He is an overflow of love inviting us into relationship.
🔹 God doesn’t call us to stay on the mountain; He sends us into our communities with the promise, "I am with you always."

Watch the full message below to dive deeper into the grace of Jesus, the love of the Father, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.

How does knowing God is with you change your perspective for the week ahead? Let us know in the comments! 👇
