‘Redesdale Rites’
The Church of England in Elsdon, Otterburn, Horsley & Byrness
21st February 2016
- Don’t forget ‘Prize Bingo’ in aid of St John’s Church, Otterburn. Friday 26th February, 7 for 7.30pm in Otterburn Memorial Hall
- Coming up: ‘Women’s World Day of Prayer’ Service on Friday 4th March, 6.30pm at St John’s Church Otterburn. (see below for more details)
- Have you been confirmed? Or do you know of anyone who might want to be? A Service of Confirmation is planned for May 15th. It is to be held at St John’s Otterburn but is for anyone in the Team Parish. There is no upper age limit and increasingly more mature people are asking about confirmation. I would be more than happy to have a chat with anyone who wants to find out more.

Give us this day our daily bread
Just enough for each day, that others also may have enough

Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us
God’s grace to us and our obligation to others are inseparable

Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil

For thine is the kingdom, the power and glory, for ever and ever
