Tomorrow, Monday 28th December, we are remembering the “Holy Innocents” – the darkest part of the Christmas story. Watch a powerful film based on those events. Thank you to Stephen and Alison Barrett for sharing this link; their son Matthew Barrett is the executive producer. (12 minutes)
NOTE: This film may not be suitable for younger children as it contains images of war and violence. Please watch the film first without children.
A couple of years ago I wrote a book in which I tell the story of my wife’s illness and death. During lockdown I finished writing a second book on bereavement. It is intended to be a resource for faith-focused bereavement groups. The pilot will be run at Denham Parish Church, beginning on Wednesday, October 14th, at 7pm, via Zoom. It will run every Wednesday for seven weeks. I’m sure it will be a helpful and positive experience for those who have lost a spouse or loved one. If you are going through the experience of grief I hope you will join me so that we can learn together and discover that quality of hope that the Bible describes as “an anchor for the soul.”
