“God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life.”  Really?  We’ve all heard this – or something like it – we love to portray Jesus as gentle, meek, mild and inoffensive.  The evangelist and gospeller Mark writes about a different Jesus. An untamed, potent and militant Jesus. A Jesus who is intimidating, blunt, at times rude, bold, stern and altogether dangerous.

“God loves you and has a difficult plan for your life.” Join us this Sunday for the first in the new series ‘Mean Jesus.’

This Sunday is Ignition Sunday, we will hear short talks from a number of speakers on a subject they feel passionate about. We look forward to seeing you there!

Next Sunday (8th January) Matthew Porter, the vicar of St Michaels church, will be speaking at all of the St Mikes services Foundations: Discipleship.

Matthew will be with us for our Sunday meeting to speak to G2 as part of his marathon speaking Sunday!

Remember there is no G2 meeting on Sunday 1st January.   The are St Mikes services at 10am and 7pm.

This Sunday G2 isn’t meeting at Burnholme Community Centre – instead we’re joininig with other St Mikes congregations for a ‘Christingle’ service at 4pm in St Michael le Belfrey Church.

This will be a great service for inviting families to.

See you there.

This week at G2 we’re doing something different.

Usually, when you come to G2 someone else has decided what’s happening in the meeting- this week its up to you. We’ve created 3 Zones, each with something different happening, you get to decide where you go and what you do. One of the Zones is specific for the children and families and because of this there is no separate children’s clubs this week.

You’ll get the information about the ‘zones’ when you arrive and there will be time to decide what you want to do. It will be amazing – don’t miss it.

This Sunday is Vision Sunday at G2 and a great chance to look again at what we are all about and what we are we are headed.  Don’t miss out.  See you there.
