The North Shields Team Ministry Sunday, 29th May 2022 ASCENSION - SEVENTH SUNDAY OF EASTER
Christ Church St. Augustin’s
Welcome to our worship today:
10.00 a.m. Holy Communion (Christ Church)
10.00 a.m. Holy Communion (St. Augustin’s)
No Evening Services at Christ Church or St. Augustin’s
Although no longer mandatory we are following recommendations to wear face coverings in indoor, enclosed areas.
This week we celebrated the Ascension of Jesus which took place 40 days after Easter. Today we continue to celebrate his return to heaven. We hear about his ascension in our readings and recall how Jesus told his disciples and us that the Holy Spirit would come to strengthen and enliven us in our faith and witness. We remember all churches in our Diocese including the Church of the Ascension in Kenton which is in vacancy at the moment.
By sharing the story of our faith with others we can be witnesses for Jesus. Each one of our stories is special and people would love to hear yours. God bless your journey in faith.

A&M 612 Christ triumphant, ever reigning
A&M 507 We have a gospel to proclaim
A&M 227 Crown him with many crowns
