Salvation’s Story Includes You!
The genealogies at the end of Ruth & at the start of Matthew’s gospel are full of remarkable people. What has God called you to continue to be committed to?

The end of the book of Ruth is much better than a simple love story; the actions of Ruth, Naomi and Boaz have much bigger consequences.
We’d love for you to join us at one of our free events at Salford Elim Church this Christmas, as we celebrate the birth of Jesus.
Both Ruth and Boaz took risks in order to create new possibilities for others. What might God be asking of us which could prove redemptive for others in our families and work places?
How do we make sense of the good things that happen in life which are beyond our control? Do we put them down to luck or is God involved somehow? “When I pray, coincidences happen; when I don’t, they don’t.” William Temple pic.twitter.com/0XmpodIG3c — Salford Elim Church (@SalfordElim) 17 November 2019
The book of Ruth is a story of God’s hand in the midst of an ordinary family. When tragedy strikes, we, like Naomi, may well ask: ‘where are you God?’
Through November we’re making sense of life by reading the book of Ruth together. Join us if you can. If you can’t, you might find this interesting anyway.
The story of the blind beggar reminds us that we are all spiritually blind until we see Jesus for who he really is. The question is, how much do you want to see him?
Paul ends his letter to the Galatian church with an encouragement to do good; particularly to carry one another’s burdens. We still need to hear that encouragement today.
We can believe the lie that everything depends on us. Sometimes we need reminding to simply trust in the Father who holds all things in His hands.
