Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His love endures forever Psalm 131
Dear All,
Church Keys
An e-mail was circulated during the week regarding the audit of key holders and the need for all key holders to hold a current DBS. If you have not responded to this yet, please do so as soon as possible.
Operation Christmas Child
The shoebox appeal for Operation Christmas Child was launched last Sunday. Shoeboxes are available in the porch for 40p each for you to fill. Attached with this letter is a document with ideas of what to include in the boxes. It is important to note that toothpaste, sweets, lotions and liquids and used or damaged items should not be included. The final day for receiving boxes is 9th November when they will be blessed as part of our Remembrance Sunday service.

Bible Journaling
The next journaling session is on this Saturday 25th October, 10am-12pm. The group is growing, with new people coming along each time, so please feel free to give it a try!
No experience, artistic skills or equipment needed, coffee and cake provided, chat and friendly welcome guaranteed! Do speak to Jo for more details or any questions you may have.
Prayer before the morning services
We are aiming to gather together to pray at 9.45 am each Sunday with those who are leading and taking part in the service. These prayers are specifically for the church service. Please do feel free to join everyone to pray in the music area.
Prayer meetings
If you are available on Wednesday mornings at 9.30 am or Saturday mornings, please do consider joining the prayer meetings on Zoom. These are special times to join together to pray and it would be wonderful to have more people join us. There is no pressure to pray out aloud if that is what concerns you!
This week
There will be a prayer meeting on Wednesday morning and Saturday morning at 9.30 am.
Zoom details will be e-mailed early in the week.
As it is half term week, most of our normal activities will be taking a break.
With love and blessings,
