Merry Christmas This digital Christmas card comes with my heartfelt prayers and warm wishes as we celebrate the birth of Jesus. This nativity scene, designed by Stan, one of our younger diocesan artists, brings with it my prayers and hopes for you to glimpse again some of the simplicity of the birth of our saviour, and recognise in the bemused responses of the first witnesses how much God still has to reveal to us. I also want to express my deep appreciation to those who support our Diocese throughout the year. Your work and prayers are immensely valued. As we celebrate the advent of Jesus, I extend a warm and loving invitation to everyone to join us in our churches. You will be welcomed with joy!
