Because this service will also be a "Welcome Sunday", we are expecting to have more people in church. Susan Tasker will be working on the Saturday when the posies are made. She would appreciate some help with collecting the flowers and making up the posies. If you will have some spare time on Saturday 12th March, and are willing to help out, please do have a word with Susan.
Youth organisations, Toddlers' Group and Cradle Roll families will all receive invitations to this service. Please can we appeal to you to send an invitation to your own family, friends and neighbours? Why not take some of the printed leaflets to hand out?
We have lots of room in the church - let's fill it!
Pray Without Ceasing
Please pray for our ministers and their families along with all the circuit stewards as they now move into the changes for our new circuit.
We pray also for our friends at Christ Church who continue to do the Lord's work as a community and for all who are on our prayer cross and prayer list, that they might feel the healing touch of God.
