Hop i kamap bek, Palm Sande 

Hop inap long pilim olsem em i no strong taim wol i paul. Ol woa i wok long kamap. Ol bel i bruk. Ol samting bilong bihain taim i pundaun. Maski bilip, sampela taim, i pilim olsem em i hangamap long wanpela tret. Tasol i gat wanpela de i stap insait long kalenda bilong marimari we i kirapim tingting bilong yumi olsem hop i no inap stap longwe olsem yumi ting. Dispela de em i Palm Sande.

Jerusalem i stap laip wantaim ol samting we ol i wet long en. Ol manmeri i kam insait, ol i mekim nek i go antap, ol i tromoi ol klos long rot i gat das. Ol han bilong diwai pam i wok long tantanim olsem plak bilong fridom taim Jisas i sindaun antap long donki na i go insait long siti. Em i no wanpela taim tasol - em i dispela taim, we tok profet i bungim rot na heven i tok isi olsem, "King i kam pinis."

"Olgeta dispela samting i kamap bilong inapim tok bilong profet, olsem: 'Yu mas tokim pikinini meri bilong Saion olsem, "Lukim, King bilong yu i kam long yu, yu no gat nem, na em i sindaun antap long wanpela donki, wanpela pikinini donki, pikinini bilong wanpela donki"'" (Matyu 21:4-5, NKJV).

Hop i no save kamap oltaim olsem yumi tingim. Ol manmeri i laikim tru wanpela 'political liberator', wanpela lida bilong daunim Rom. Tasol Jisas i kam wantaim wanpela samting we i dip moa - bel isi bilong sol, i no bel isi tasol i kam long wanpela empaia. Em i no kam bilong daunim ol birua, tasol em i kam bilong daunim sin. I no bilong kirapim bainat, tasol bilong kirapim bek ol daiman. Na long mekim olsem, Em i raitim gen stori bilong trupela hop i luk olsem wanem.

Pam Sande i kirapim tingting bilong yumi olsem rot bilong win i save go long pasin daun. King bilong glori i no kam wantaim wanpela parade bilong ol hos na ol soldia tasol wantaim ol kwaet pairap bilong lek na nek bilong ol pikinini i singsing, "Hosana long Pikinini bilong Devit!" (Matyu 21:15, NKJV). Ol lain husat i gat yau inap long pilim dispela - God i wok long mekim wanpela nupela samting, wanpela samting we i stap oltaim oltaim.

Ating hop bilong yu yet i bagarap. Ating ol laspela yia i bin mekim yu tingting planti sapos God i save kamap yet. Tasol Palm Sunday i tokaut olsem hop i no lus; em i wok long ron i kam long yu, nau tu. Dispela wankain Jisas husat i bin go insait long Jerusalem namel long ol amamas bai wokabaut long Via Dolorosa namel long ol tok bilas. Em i save olsem diwai kros i wetim em. Em i save olsem pasin bilong giamanim em, tok nogat, na dai i stap sampela de tasol. Tasol Em i kam yet.

Bilong wanem? Long wanem, lav i save muv i go long ol manmeri i bruk. Long wanem, marimari i no save stap longwe. Long wanem, plen bilong God long stretim bek ol samting i no inap long stopim long rot bilong ol nil bilong Rom o pasin antap bilong lotu. Palm Sande em i pruf olsem maski ol samting i luk olsem i no klia, heven i stap klia. Ol manmeri i ken senis, win i ken senis, tasol King i stap yet.

Na dispela em i gutpela samting tru - dispela stori i no bilong Jerusalem tasol. Em i bilong olgeta ples, olgeta siti, olgeta bel i les na i tingting planti sapos God i tingim ol. Em i bilong yu. Long hia stret. Nau yet. Maski yu painim yu yet long wanpela taim bilong win o wanpela taim bilong bel hevi, tok tru i wankain: Jisas i kam. Em i stap klostu. Na Em i bringim wantaim Em wanpela hop we i no save pinis.

Bihain Pol i raitim olsem, "God bilong hop i ken pulapim yupela wantaim amamas na bel isi long bilip bilong yupela, bai yupela i ken kisim planti hop long strong bilong Holi Spirit" (Rom 15:13, NKJV). Dispela em i kain hop we Palm Sande i save planim insait long yumi. Em i no wanpela strongpela laik - em i wanpela strongpela, laip asurens. Dispela kain hop we inap sanap namel long bel hevi bilong Gut Fraide na tok yet olsem, "Kirap bek i kam."

Olsem na apim het bilong yu. Opim bel bilong yu. King i kam - em i gat pasin daun, em i isi, na em i pulap long marimari. Larim sol bilong yu i singaut gen, "Hosana i stap antap tru!" bikos Hop i gat nem, na nem bilong Em em Jisas.

Church on Sunday at Strodes College, Egham


welcome 2

Our Sunday service starts at 11:00 a.m. and typically lasts about 90 minutes.

We start each service with lively worship with songs from around the world, followed by inspired Bible-based teaching. All our sermons are recorded and are available as a podcast after the service.

We have a monthly cycle of Sunday services, with our Communion Service being on the first Sunday of each month and an All-Age All-Nation Service on the second Sunday of each month. Our other Sunday services include Spirit-focused and teaching services.

We have consciously adopted being a blended church that is both for those online and face-to-face. You are welcome to join us on Livestream or via Facebook, Linkedin, YouTube, or X (Twitter), or you can catch up and watch the recordings later.

Visiting with children?

Everyone is welcome at RCF. We encourage everyone, young and old, to join the service. We have Sunday School, which starts after worship and runs during the sermon for 30 to 40 minutes for children aged 4 to 12. On the second Sunday of each month, we have a shorter All-Aged All Nations Service, where the children stay for the worship and the sermon.

We chat over coffee and biscuits after church on the first, third and fourth Sundays. If you want to get more acquainted, why not join us for a Sunday lunch with some of our members? The meal is on us! Please contact us and let us know. We would love to share a meal and get to know you better!
