Church Membership List (Electoral Roll). Each year we have to revise our membership list. If you attend the church regularly and would like to be included on this list, please speak to Lorna 

Lent Prayer Course - we are running a five week course through Lent called Life Source on Tuesday 7.30pm. All are welcome. “At times prayer can seem like hard work or a bit of a mystery. At other times, it's an encounter with the Living God. Wherever you are on the journey of faith, Life Source will encourage a discovery of new-found joy and delight in prayer for novices and old hands alike.”

  Easter Flowers
  A collection is now being taken for anyone who would like to donate towards the Easter Flowers.
  Please give monies to either Jean or Stella.

Serving each other in church. It is great that we are able to depend on each other as so many people help out in so many different ways in church. Sometimes it isn't possible to make it when we are on a rota, but please do remember to try to arrange someone to cover if you aren't able to help in the way that was planned, and please do check your rota regularly. 

Love your church The church is open every Saturday from 10am-12noon for cleaning, tidying, fixing, moving, sorting, trimming, planting, painting, bonding, helping, doing, watching, organising, teamworking, decorating and building. Please feel free to drop in and “love your church”.   

Please  Pray: 
  • For the peace of the whole world, for the welfare of the Holy Church of God, and for the unity of all.
  • The Global economies at this difficult times
  • For all those using our building 
  •  For God's blessing upon the church members and the local community. 
  •  We thank God for all who care for and steward the land. In this season, we ask God to support and encourage those livestock farmers who are lambing and calving, working long and often lonely hours as they help to bring new life into the world. May they know God's presence. 
  • We pray for good weather so that there is sufficient grass in the fields to help support  this new life. 
  • Around 750 babies in the UK are born with Down's Syndrome every year. In this Down's Syndrome Awareness week we pray for increased understanding of the condition. We pray for good opportunities for those with Down's Syndrome enabling them to enjoy full and active roles in their communities.
