On the fifth Sunday of Easter we reflect on the image of Jesus the vine. The buds on this pear tree in the community orchard at Barnhill, near Perth, are showing signs of growth in the spring.

Jesus said, “Abide in me as I abide in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit, because apart from me you can do nothing. Whoever does not abide in me is thrown away like a branch and withers; such branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned.
If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask for whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit and become my disciples.”
(John 15:4-8)

O God, who alone can bring harmony to the minds of your faithful people:
give us grace to love the things you command,
and to desire the things you promise;
that, amid the uncertain changes of this world,
our hearts may be firmly fixed where true joys are to be found;
through Jesus Christ, our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, world without end.
Amen. ... See MoreSee Less

On the feast day of St Mark we pray that we may follow his example as we are firmly grounded in truth. The waters of Mill Dam near Dunkeld reflect the surrounding trees and hills.

Almighty God,
you have instructed your holy Church
with the heavenly teaching of your evangelist, Saint Mark:
give us grace, that we may be firmly grounded in its truth;
through Jesus Christ, our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, world without end.
Amen. ... See MoreSee Less

I was so very happy and grateful to receive St Mary’s gift to the Lent Appeal for Ray of Hope in the Diocese of Calcutta, and for all the fundraising and donations given by the congregation. Every gift. large or small, from every congregation and person is being received with thanks and joy. These gifts will help change women’s lives.
Bishop IanBishop Ian was surprised on Sunday when Nerys presented him with our contribution of £6,300 to his Lent appeal for Nari Dana, a women's empowerment project in the Diocese of Calcutta. Thanks to everyone who donated and who took part in the Silent Auction and Sale.
