MORNING PRAYER

Join us at 7 am every day (except Sunday) at zoom.jamberooanglican.com as we gather to read the Bible, pray, and encourage each other as the new day dawns.

APRIL BOOKS OF THE MONTH

‘The Pilgrim’s Progress’ by John Bunyan, AND ‘Little Pilgrim’s Progress’ by Helen L. Taylor.

This month we have two books! This way experienced and younger readers can enjoy this month’s book.

The Pilgrim’s Progress is a vividly imagined allegory that follows the adventures of a young everyman named Christian as he undertakes the perilous journey from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City.

The Little Pilgrim’s Progress takes John Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress and simplifies the vocabulary and concepts for young readers, while keeping the storyline intact.

We have physical copies available for purchase over in the church hall.

GIVING UPDATE

Each week we need to receive $6300.00 in order to meet our commitments. Last month, our average weekly giving was $5509.00, leaving a gap of $791.00. Up to the end of the last calendar month we needed to have received $273,000. Compared to that total we received $245,588, leaving a gap of $27,412.

Electronic giving is a great way to give! It helps us prayerfully plan our giving, and then the bank will help us keep that commitment, even when we may be unable to attend.
