All Age Worship led by Rev Steve Mayo. This service will include Holy Communion, and is also our annual Covenant Service.
What is a Covenant Service, and why is it important?
Methodists hold an annual Covenant Service – a celebration of all that God has done and an affirmation that we give our lives and choices to God.
The aim of the service is to help people hear God’s offer and God’s challenge; to provide space for God to prompt and for people to respond. What God offers through the Covenant is a loving relationship.
The focal point of the service is the Covenant Prayer. The prayer represents a commitment to being a disciple and putting God first in our lives and in everything about our lives: what we do, what we say and who we are. It is both a surrender to, and a trust in, God.
At the beginning of a new year, the Covenant Service helps us to cement our relationship with God and enables us a fresh start, looking forward into the future with hope and clarity at the path God has set before us.
