AT YOUR SERVICE - 5 JULY 2020

At Your Service

Sunday, 5 July 2020 - 30 minutes

On 29 June, the Christian church celebrates two great saints - Peter and Paul - who dedicated their life to serving God and serving God's people.
On today's programme, we reflect on these two very different men, and ask the question - what does it mean today - two thousand years later - to dedicate your whole life to the service of God, and of the community?

Reverend Marc Wolverson, who is an Anglican priest in Lancashire now, but for nearly 5 years was the Vicar of All Saints Church in Douglas, and Captain Dylan Nieuwoudt, leader of the Salvation Army on the Island, each share their thoughts on a life spent serving God.
Captain Dylan shares his leadership with his wife Captain Rachael, and she joins us with a short time of prayer - for us all, whatever our calling.

We finish with The Loom of Time - a thought-provoking poem read by Anne Clarke.
(This was included in a programme a few weeks ago, but not broadcast, due to a technical problem which cut the programme short 5 minutes from the end - so it's repeated here for those who missed it then!)

And as usual there's music - a wonderful uplifting arrangement of a great hymn - Praise to The Lord, the Almighty, the King of Creation' sung and played by Gareth Moore, organist and Musical Director at Trinity Methodist Church at Rosemount, Douglas, and the Huddersfield Choral Society sing 'O Jesus I have promised to serve thee to the end' - the choice of Mrs Barbara Simpkins of Ramsey.

Your hymn choices are always welcome - let me know what you would like to hear in forthcoming programmes - my email address is judithley@manxradio. com
