Service of the Word – 11th June 12:15pm in Church (after the Friday Coffee Morning 10-12).  This service will be on the second Friday of the month.  The service is an opportunity for people to attend church during the week and to connect with God.


Summer Sunday Help- We continue to run children's groups on Sunday mornings throughout the summer holidays. We would love to give our regular team a bit of a break and so would really appreciate some summer volunteers.  We need 20 slots filling and so if you could sign up to help with just one Sunday that would be a huge help. No preparation needed, and you can choose which age group (0-5s or 5-11s)!  We are seeing an exciting growth in the children's ministry and so even with families away over the summer, we will still have lots of children coming along each week which is amazing  3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th August    Please contact Lizzie [email protected]  with offers of help.

ECOCHURCH
It's likely that every toothbrush you have ever used, in your whole life, still exists, in a landfill somewhere. There are now biodegradable bamboo ones and biodegradable dental floss too.  Why not try them?


Prayer Space In the prayer area at the back of church there are cards for you to leave a; Testimony, Things to Pray for, as well as words for us as a Church.  The Staff team will then take time to pray during for them during the week.  Please place completed cards in the offertory box or give to a member of the clergy.
For 24/7 urgent (and confidential) prayer requests please send an email to [email protected].
