Each weekend, the Baptist Church in Horley, Surrey, publishes a news bulletin giving the congregation and visitors information about the Church’s activities. The bulletin also includes a weekly meditation or reflection; a thought for the week usually written by one of the Church members. This is a catalogue of those reflections, in counter-chronological order.
– The date shown is usually the date of publication, some older entries may show the date of preparation instead.
– Occasionally, the weekly meditation is taken from external sources; those articles are not included in this catalogue.
– Links prefixed with ! are currently unavailable.
