the connexion is designed to keep you, the Methodist people, in touch with what’s happening in your Church. Issue 8 focuses on transition.

Easter represents the most potent transition ever recorded in the history of humanity. Jesus enables us to open ourselves fully to God's "Yes" when all worldly expectation seems to point in the opposite direction. His selfless embracing of the way to the cross is the ultimate expression of giving, handing over and of letting go. It is the cradle-shaped precursor which liberates the gift of resurrection.

Easter sets us free to live out of the continuing power of this beautiful gesture in the life of the Church. It is where all transition begins.
