Jesus invites Transformation - 10 May 2026

When you think of transformation, what comes to mind? Maybe it’s a caterpillar becoming a butterfly, or simple ingredients like flour, butter, and sugar turning into a cake in the oven. Or perhaps it’s more personal, reflecting on your life before Jesus and your life with Him. Transformation is something we all recognise in different ways, and it often brings the beauty of new life.As we explore what transformation means for us as followers of Jesus this week, we are reminded that Jesus doesn’t simply ask for belief, He invites us into transformation. Throughout the Gospels, we see how deeply Jesus changes lives. One story that stands out is the story of Mary Magdalene, who was freed from deep spiritual oppression and restored to new life and purpose. Her encounter with Jesus changed everything, and she went on to devote her life to following Him.Transformation isn’t a one-time moment, it’s the ongoing lifestyle of a disciple. As a church community, we are more than people who gather. We are people being changed. We celebrate stories of transformation, encourage one another as we grow, and invite others into this same journey. So, the question we might ask ourselves is: how can we embrace this invitation to transformation, becoming disciples who make disciples, raising children of God together?Blessings,Kaitlyn
