Bulletin

___________________________

We give you all a warm welcome to church. Please join
us for tea or coffee in the hall after worship and say
hello. We meet every Sunday morning at 10.30 and the
service typically lasts for about an hour. Currently we
don’t have a minister and our services are led by
different people both Lay and Ordained. Each service
includes a talk or activity for all ages (children, teens
and adults), singing, a reading from the Bible and
prayers. A sermon is preached which focuses on the
Bible passage read, and aims to be relevant to our
place in the world of 2025. We share Holy Communion
together every third Sunday of the month.
Details of our activities below.

Sunday School

Our young people meet with us all for the early part of the service. They then have the opportunity to go into another room where they share biblical based age-related activities. All our Sunday School leaders are fully DBS checked.

Special Announcement:

At a special church members meeting on Sunday 15th June, it was agreed by an overwhelming majority to invite Rev Louise Brown to become our minister. It is anticipated that Louise, Arthur and family will join us in the autumn. Please keep the whole family in your prayers as there are many things to do, not least arranging school places for their younger children. Needless to say, after a particularly busy time for our hard-working deacons we hold them in our prayers.

In our prayers:

As the bulletin is prepared, the world situation seems to be ever deteriorating. Things are too complex to detail here and the suffering of many people is unspeakable. Please pray for all victims of warfare, conflict and oppression. Pray for our world leaders, particularly those who have power and influence. Often the wealthiest nations are the most powerful. Pray that those who hold such power may use it in the cause of mercy and justice. We have a great God who scripture tells us is all prevailing and all powerful. Pray for the world the bible tells us ‘God made good’.

We continue to pray, with thanksgiving, for our fellowship here. Who would have known after we leant that Jac was (needfully) planning to move on, that we would have had such interest shown in our small fellowship? Another indication that we do not stand alone, and that God continues to honour His work here. So, we pray for Louise and Arthur as they presently join us and for our Deacons as they undertake the many practicalities.

We continue to pray for one another. Those of our fellowship who need a touch of healing, those also amongst our families, friends and work colleagues.
