SEVEN
This Sunday Seven Service is on 10th July   Overwhelmed by Grace

Our Legacy Project Blessing others as we have been blessed
The people of Christ Church have always embraced opportunities to use our resources to reach out to others. The recent redevelopment of the office and the Church building was purposed to underpin this vision for a generation to come.
 
Continuing on this theme, the PCC has recommitted to complete the original objectives of the redevelopment project, and to raise the last of the funds needed to enable the Church to be “debt free”. Included as a key objective of the project is that10% of all personal gifting for the redevelopment should be used to create lasting legacy projects which bless others.
 
The many relationships that Christ Church already enjoys will form the core of our focus to become recipients of our legacy funding - and projects that enable others to learn of God’s word, to grow in faith and to have a long-lasting kingdom impact are our mission.
 
If you have an idea or a project that you would like us to consider supporting, please contact Ros McFiggans (team leader) via the church office.

SUMMER -  YOUNG PEOPLE
To enable children’s and youth activities to continue over the summer, we need your help…
 
Summer Sundays

• Over the summer we give our regular team a well-deserved break.  In order to be able to continue running our children’s groups, we need help. 
• Are you able to help on one Sunday (24th July, 31st July,  7th August, 14th August, 21ST August, 28th August) in either crèche, 3-11 year olds or youth.  To run, a crèche team needs 3 people each week, 3-11s need 2 others to help Jess and youth needs 1 other to help Alex.

 
Summer Blast

• In order to run 3 fun mornings of Bible teaching, games and craft, we need a team of people. Teams are required 9-12.30 am on Tuesday 2nd, 9th, 16th August. Whether you can make one, two or all of the sessions and whatever your skill set, there will be a role for you. The number of children we can welcome and size of these mornings depends on how many team members we have so please do consider getting involved.

 
Wednesday Youth

• We would like to run a fun game of ‘Disguised or Recognised’ around the town (this will involve helpers sitting around town, some disguises and lots of fun as the young people try to find you!) This will be on the 10th August. Timings tbc but likely to be for an hour early afternoon.

 
Extra Support

• We would love to be able to offer some 1-1 support to our children who have additional needs.  What this will look like will vary depending on the child and the help you feel able to give but if you have a heart for working with children in this supportive role then please do think about whether you could come along to Summer Blast in this capacity or on a Sunday morning rota over the summer or from September.

 
If you would like to know more about any of the above then please do contact Jess at [email protected] or message/call 07776596561.
