Who is Jesus?

‘God said to Moses, “I AM has sent me to you.”’

(Matthew 11.5)

​

‘I am the good shepherd’,

‘I am the door’,

‘I am the way, the truth and the life.’

​

These familiar ‘I am’ statements of Jesus in John’s Gospel are deceptively simple. But what did Jesus mean by them? And what do they mean to us today?

 

Led by Revd Nick Munday and Mrs Jane Templeman, the day will start at 9.30am with tea/coffee from 9.00, include a Communion service followed by a simple lunch, and finish with tea at 3.30. We’ll look at the ‘I am’ statements in their Biblical context and examine some relevant art, music and poetry. It will be a relaxed day, with quiet time and opportunities for conversation and fellowship – a similar format to the Quiet Days in previous years. As last year, in order to cater for as many as possible, we are running the same Quiet Day twice, but with a limit on numbers on each day.

 

The cost including lunch & refreshments is £7 payable on the day (cash or card). Please book in advance by Saturday 12 September.
