Welcome to Sunday Online at Encounter. We are thrilled that you have wanted to join us this weekend.

Today sees us start our annual Advent series as we prepare for Christmas. The series is called Advent Comfort and will be focussing on allowing the beauty of Advent and this season to capture our full attention as we approach Christmas.

Mark is speaking today with a message that is all about ‘Dealing with Distraction.’ He will be looking at the story of Mary and how we can focus on what really matters most.

We really hope you enjoy worshipping with us this weekend and that you are encouraged, strengthened and renewed for the challenges of the week ahead.
