Something to think about:

God of grace and glory;  Open our eyes that we may seethe world through your eyes; Open our ears that we may hear cries for justice with your ears; Open our hearts that we might share your compassion; Open our minds that we might discern your truth; Open our mouths that we  might speak your word;    Embolden us with your Spirit that we might: respond to all we see and hear; put into practice what we learn from you; and be messengers of your grace and glory.  Amen

Mrs Betty Guy

Mrs Guy’s daughter Sue Hale (suzy_h@hotmail.co.uk) has been in touch to pass on the sad news of the death of her Mother.

“My father Raymond Guy was minister at St Martin’s from 1971 to 1978 and during that time he and my mother Betty Guy made many special friends. They treasure those happy memories very dearly and Jersey was their spiritual home……………My mother sadly passed away peacefully on 27 June surrounded by her loving family, while dad keeps very well and will be 95 on Monday! Dad is living in a care home nearby while mum had been living with us for the past six months, then moved into his care home to be closer to dad before she passed away.

Should anyone wish to get in touch do pass on my email address and my phone number is 07393292733.”
