‘What does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?’ Micah 6:8.
Dear All,
Sunday
This Sunday morning we will be celebrating Mothering Sunday with a gift for each of the ladies. Andrew will be giving a presentation on the latest position with the work on the Church Vision.
Prayer Day
Our Prayer Day is next Saturday (21st March). The church will be open from 9.30 am to 4 pm for you to come and go as you please and engage with the prayer stations in the church or simply sit and pray and reflect. There will be refreshments served in the Creche – we hope this will enable the church to be a quiet space for prayer. Please do try and come to some part of the day – prayer is so important to the life of our church and also of course to each one of us as individuals.

Gifts Course
We are going to be running the Spiritual Gifts course called SHAPE starting 22nd April at 7pm. This course will run fortnightly and will help you to identify your:
• Spiritual Gifts
• Heart’s Desires
• Abilities
• Personality
• Experience
that you can use for God’s Service.
For those who have done the Spiritual Gifts course at Plume Avenue previously, this is a different course to the one we have used before. Most of us are very aware of our own strengths and weaknesses and so lack confidence in our Christian lives. We need to discover more of our gifts and strengths, the way God has shaped us and what we have to offer! Please do prayerfully consider signing up for the course. The sign up sheet is now in the foyer so please do add your name if you would like to attend so that we can produce the correct number of resources. If you have any questions speak to Liz, David or Marie.
Use of mobile devices
We have experienced some issues with the streaming and recording of our services. Some of this is due to mobile devices being used during the service and taking up valuable internet access. We would like to request that mobile devices are not used during the services other than for emergencies. (See below re bibles.)
Bibles
We would like to encourage everyone to bring their bible to church each week. Bibles are available in church in the event you would like to use one but have forgotten to bring your own.
