CORE VALUES
Hospitality – we seek to welcome and helping support pilgrims on the next step of their journey. Taking the time to sit with someone and listen to their story, may be life changing. Compassion - we seek to imitate Jesus as we respond with warmth and care to those in need or pain around us. (2 Corinthians 1:3-7). Inclusion – we are committed to creating an environment where all feel welcome and safe, regardless of background, racial or cultural differences. Justice – we aim to promote a balanced and fair relationship with self, neighbour, all of creation and with God. |
20th Anniversary Year
Dayspring was formally established in 2001. Lives have been transformed and many wonderful speakers and events have filled these twenty years, so there will be much to celebrate when we gather for each event this year.
The Guiding Committee has chosen "Turning Points" as a theme that will recur through our celebratory events in 2021.
Keep in touch with our plans through our e-Newsletter (sign up below) and our Facebook page.

Epiphanies of Grace ...
Christmas of Hope.
“Goodwill and Peace” the Angles sang
When a baby cried in Bethlehem
That humble stable was bathed in light
On that wondrous night of Holy Nights.
We cannot hear those Angles words
As we live in a world so now disturbed
By disease, disasters and divisive hate
And ponder on this sad world’s fate.
We search this world for all’s that’s lost
And shed our tears as we count the cost
Our hearts are sad and spirits broken
But hear again those words as spoken.
That Babe of Bethlehem reminds us still
That God alone can heal all our ills
Of mind and body and lonely hearts
And to us all true Joy impart.
Our Christmas morn can fill with light
The light of Hope for a world put right
When “Goodwill and Peace” will reign again
As we praise that Babe of Bethlehem.
