Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid…Come.” Matthew 14:27,29
Dear All,
Hope you have had a good week. We gather this Sunday at 10am for our final Café Church Service of the Summer. During the service we will hear testimonies and stories from Satellites, Holiday Club, New Wine and how God has been working in people’s lives recently. If you feel God is prompting you to share something, please do let me know – it is not too late! Please do try and join us as we celebrate the “Summer highlights”.
After the service we will share some time together over our picnic lunches – do bring your lunch with you.
David and I will again be taking some time out this week – we are not going away but would appreciate it if folk did not contact us by e-mail, messaging, texting or phone from Monday to Friday inclusive unless you have an emergency.
Summer Mondays
Thank you to everyone who helped and everyone who provided the wonderful cakes for the Summer Monday sessions. We are now praying and considering where we go with this area of children’s work. Please do pray about this and if you have anything to share please let me know.
