Dear Friends,
Happy New Year! At the beginning of a new year, many of us make resolutions and set new goals for the year ahead. Maybe we plan to eat healthier, exercise more and get fit. Or maybe take up a new hobby. Or spend more time with our loved ones. All good goals! We may also take time to look ahead: what are our expectations as the new year begins? What are our spiritual goals for 2025? 2024 was, for many of us, a very challenging year and our experiences have shown us that anything and everything can happen, both good things and bad. We don’t know what journey God is taking us on this year. But we can be certain that God who calls us is faithful and promises always to be with us. As we settle into this New Year, whether we have set goals or not, let’s endeavour to step out in faith, seeking God and following Him wherever He calls us to. Let us keep our eyes on Jesus, and draw strength and joy from knowing that whatever happens, he will always be walking with us.
Wishing you and your family a very happy, joyful, love filled and peaceful New Year.
God Bless,
Clare
