Church news for the week beginning 9th September 2017

2 Samuel series continues

This weekend we continue our series looking at 2 Samuel as Jodie preaches from chapter 9 verse 1 to chapter 10 verse 19 with the title, “The kindness of the King”.

Mission of the month: CMS

CMS (Church Missionary Society) is our mission of the month. Support this ministry through the ‘Mission Table’ in the Hall.

Combined Celebration Service

On Saturday 7th October we are bringing our two services together for a celebration night at 5pm. We will be officially welcoming Rayne Orange to our church as our Youth Minister, and will be enjoying special Canadian-themed dinner and entertainment. We’ll also be having some special speeches of farewell and thanksgiving for two of our members.

This combined church service will replace our 8am service on the 8th October which will not be held this weekend. Keep the date free, and bring along your friends and family for this great night of celebration!

New Midweek Service

On Thursday 2nd November at 11am we will trial a new ‘Midweek Service’ which will be followed by a light lunch. We are praying that this service will provide a format that will serve our members who often find the 8am time difficult, and that it will be an ideal service to which we might invite our friends. Keep the date free!
