It was great to have Revd Stephen Everard and his wife Jane back with us. He also looked at forgiveness. In the Genesis reading Joseph was very forgiving towards his brothers, for a debt that they could never pay. The first servant in the Matthew reading was also forgiven a debt he couldn\u2019t pay, but then didn\u2019t offer the same grace and mercy to others. Jesus paid our debt &#8211; that we could never pay, and we are expected to also offer the same grace to those who have hurt us or done us wrong. We are reminded of this every time we say the Lord\u2019s prayer.<\/p><p><strong>Primary School Bangers<\/strong><\/p><p>We sang 6 hymns that were nominated by people in the congregation. They told us why they picked each song, which was really nice. It lead to a lot of discussion after the service about how these songs had meaning in many of our lives!
