Welcome home! There's no greater word to hear whether you are coming home from deployment, returning after travelling, reuniting after separation, reconciling after years estranged. Welcome home ... let us celebrate. In the final week of our series 'At the Table' we do just that. Celebrate. Party. Rejoice. For that's what God does every time he welcomes someone home. Throws a lavish party, where love abounds, forgiveness flows freely, laughter multiplies and joy spreads. Wherever you come from, no matter how far away you have been, the party today is for you - for the Father longs to embrace you in his arms and say, 'Welcome. Welcome home.'
There is no recording of the service today as it is our special Kids Church service where the young people lead us in our service:
BIBLE READING:
Luke 15:11-32
THEME VERSE:
"But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found." Luke 15:32
REMEMBER THIS WEEK
When you wander or go astray
Think you know a better way.
Head off down a harmful track
God is waiting to welcome you back
Yes Jesus loves you
Yes, Jesus loves you
Yes Jesus loves you
The Party's just for you!!
His steadfast love for you is great
And his mercy's an open gate
Through which he runs to seek your face
And shower you with amazing grace.
Come on in and celebrate
This party's for you, so fill your plate
And have no doubt, his love is true
He gave up his Son on a cross for you.
