Defying the Snow


Ninety people (about our average congregation) defied the snow (some of it freshly fallen) to come and worship God at St Paul’s this morning.

It was well worth coming, as Dr Keith Waddell, an eye surgeon from Uganda, told of his recent recovery to health. The service was led by our rector, Steve Bailey, and Colin Chettle preached on Jesus' great commission – on how we are called to go with Jesus’ authority and filled with his Holy Spirit, to proclaim and demonstrate God’s kingdom ‘for the sake of the world’.

By the time we came out almost all the snow had disappeared apart from a few patches on the grass.
