Sound bites from the Bible "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.... Through Him all things were made.... The Word became flesh and lived for a while among us." John 1: 1- The Word refers to Jesus, his name until he came as a baby to earth. It is generally accepted from the text above, that this Word (Jesus) made the earth and all that is in it. (In him was life, and that life was the light of men. V4). So, when Jesus hung on the cross it was part of God himself. Lynn Slater, Authorised Lay Minister |

Mother's Union collection for Ukraine On behalf of Holy Trinity Mother's Union, I would like to thank all members and friends for the tremendous amount of help and dedication in receiving and transporting the incredible amount of donations received for the Ukrainian Appeal. I would especially like to mention Rebecca Nickson, her family and friends, who provided a "Luton" van and other transport to enable us to get the Church cleared on Monday morning. Thank you to Mark, who drove the van and everyone who went over to Lostock Hall and some who had to return and go again the next day. I should also like to thank everyone who offered transport that was not needed, and thanks to Brian, who provided us with pies for lunch on Friday and who vacuumed up after everything had gone. It was an incredible effort by all concerned, and we hope it will give some comfort to those who have had to leave their homes and all their possessions behind. A special mention should be made of Freckleton C of E Primary School, who held a non- Many thanks for all your help and support Anne Kay Branch Leader |

Sound bites from the Bible Luke 18:15- People were also bringing babies to Jesus to have him touch them. When the disciples saw this, they rebuked them. But Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. This text is often quoted at baptisms and at other services where the intention is to make children welcome, but there is a much deeper meaning involved. Are we to suppose that the kingdom of heaven will consist of nothing but children? Of course not. Jesus’ meaning here is that just as a little child trusts completely in its parent for all its needs, shelter food and love, so we must trust completely in the Father for all our needs. If we did this how much simpler would our lives be? Stress would become a thing of the past, the need for money to “keep up with the Joneses wouldn’t exist and loving one another as our Father loves us would take the I out of the word sin. The passage finishes with verse 17: I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never receive it. Will you put your trust in the Lord.
