What does this mean?
As followers of Jesus we learn to give with abundant generosity reflecting God’s amazing grace for us all. As we receive Christ’s forgiveness we learn how to reflect God’s amazing grace to others by forgiving those who sin against us. We learn how to live out our faith in work, rest and prayer.
We walk in the light of Christ by:
- enjoying God’s gifts with gratitude
- living by the teaching of Jesus
- giving generously
- giving and receiving forgiveness
- balancing rest and work
