Oh, and maybe a drink. 
Family and friends are very welcome.

 Notices 

Alpha Course: We’ll be running this 10 week course again starting in September. There are three ways to get involved with this informal introduction to Christianity;
1. Help with organising or catering
2. Come along to all or part of it
3. Invite a friend to come along

Sunday Clubs - If you are interested in Leading or assisting, please see Carolyn.

Congratulations to Ros:  Having finished her studies, Ros has got a job at St Mark’s church in Leamington heading up their Child and Family Team. We will be celebrating her success and saying farewell on Friday 19th July 7pm at the Vicarage. Please bring food and drink to share.

“Welcome Sunday” on Sunday 21st July:  We are having a ‘Welcome Sunday’ when we will spend time getting to know each other better during the main 10am service. This would be a great service to invite your family and friends to! Who might you bring with you?

Life Groups: We meet in small groups at various times through the week to help us to grow and to learn about God. Please speak to Clive to find out more or to explore which group might best suit you.

Cathedral Praise: Coventry Cathedral are keen to develop a partnership with us as a neighbouring church. We are all invited to join with them every Sunday evening at 6.30pm for Cathedral Praise. This is especially useful if you were busy serving during the morning service here.


Please pray for:

• For the peace of the whole world, for the welfare of the Holy Church of God, and for the unity of all.
• As schools break up for the summer holiday, we pray for all families with school-age children. We thank God for the rest and fun that many children will enjoy this summer, but we pray for families where the extended holiday can bring extra tension and conflict. Pray for families known to you.
• The Global economies at this difficult time
• For all those using our building
• We pray for God's blessing upon the church members and the local community.
• St Alban’s during their interregnum

Pray for those in special need at this time and those recovering from illness: 
Tracey Griffiths; Phil Smith; Bishop Christopher; Steve Brooker; Simon Hellberg; Colin O’Shea; George Adamantos; Ina Anstee; Susan McMillan

We remember those who have died:
Bishop Colin: Bishop of Coventry from 1998 - 2008.  We pray for his family and friends and all who mourn.

Prayer for Today 
Gracious God, you give us gifts and make them grow: though our faith is small as mustard seed, make it grow to your glory and the flourishing of your kingdom; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
