Jesus , undeterred , went right ahead and gave his charge : “ God authorized and commanded me to commission you : Go out and train everyone you meet , far and near , in this way of life , marking them by baptism in the threefold name : Father , Son , and Holy Spirit . Then instruct them in the practice of all I have commanded you . I ’ ll be with you as you do this , day after day after day , right up to the end of the age .” Matthew 28:16-20 The Message
It is on this strong unified platform that I know that whatever happens spiritually , physically and emotionally ; you and I will be ok . God has this all in hand .
God be with us all �

To you , my heartfelt thanks are due the people of St Os Because you ’ ve ministered to me , Both “ now and ever was !”
When in my pain I pray for you . Not yet upon the ‘ Iyre ” But when I do my hope for you - the music will rise higher !
I had to wait for pain t ’ abate . But better now by day Tho ’ in the night I have to fight . But God is here to stay
In my red car I ’ ve come – not far . I hope ‘ tis joy to us I sought in vain to go by train . Because there is no bus !
I know , you see , a lift for me . Would happily be given And as we praise one of these days We ’ re jetting off to heaven !
The time is now – somewhere somehow I have to end this ditty ! Hope you ’ ll agree these lines by me Are really awfully pretty !
Reluctantly I have to end This bright poetic form Let it be shared that “ if I ’ m spared ” I ’ ll come next Sunday morn !
