September Sermon Series Last Sunday Rev Martin travelled to all five services he introduced the subject of prayer. There are many ways to pray and engage with God, after all prayer is a conversation between our loving Heavenly Father and ourselves.
During September, all churches will be looking at a different aspect and style of prayer. If you feel that prayer doesn’t come easy or that its not something you feel ‘gifted in’ then we hope by coming along you can find encouragement in a style that suits you; after all prayer is not for a ‘special group of people’ but something for everyone.
We look forward to seeing you,
Getting ready for Harvest Festival We will be decorating the Church for Harvest Festival on Friday October 9th 10.00. We need contributions of fruit, flowers, greenery and vegetables. Please leave your contributions in the flower vestry or call me on 07786454811 if they need collecting.
If you would like to join in the fun and help decorate just turn up on the Friday with a pair of scissors. Jocelyn Wright
St Mary’s Church Library During the past few weeks Karen and I have revived the St Mary’s Church Library. It had previously been tucked away behind the piano gathering (a lot of) dust! It is now in the coffee area near the tables and chairs.
Please feel able to borrow any book from time to time and if you have Christian books you’d like to share, please bring them along and give them to Karen or me so we can keep a record of the titles available to borrow.
The larger bookcase remains near to the office and contains study guides for home groups and music and other resources.
Thank you. Gillian
