District Focus 2026-2027

During this Connexional year we will be focusing on Matthew 5:13-16 in many of our District events and services.  You may wish to join us in using this as part of your own devotions, prayer and study this year.

You are the 

LIGHT

of the world

Salt and Light

Matthew 5:13-16

13. “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.

14. “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.

15. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.

16.In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
