Message from the Methodist
Minister
My Millennium message is of good news for change and hope.
2000 years ago God placed Jesus into this world to show and teach a way of life,
of love and gentleness. Those years have proved to us the darker side of
humanity cannot be ignored or eliminated entirely. We still have war,
selfishness, cruelty and misery. Jesus’ way is not an easy option, but offers
us a vision of how things could be, if only we let love and gentleness get the
better of us! Almost 2000 years ago Jesus left us with the message that
love overcomes evil, light cannot be put out by darkness and life is stronger
than death. He also left us with a firm promise to all who put their trust in
Him, God’s help and life in a world beyond this one. The church undergoes
change, people change, but this message has not changed in all those years. It
takes us unafraid, with hope, love and gentleness into the third millennium. Rev. Lyn Houghton
