Prayer Ministry - George Pinnell
The Prayer ministry is available during the Eucharist at 10-30 in the old baptistery where you can share your concerns with those on duty and then offer them up to God. I need to reassure all those who do talk and pray with us that everything is in confidence and only shared with God.
New members have come forward making the team more flexible in term of how often we are on duty.
My thanks to all those who share their time and love with those in need it provides and gives strength in times when life becomes difficult.
Morning Prayer - Elizabeth Moore-Bick
A small group of us meet Monday-Thursday and Saturday mornings, in church from 9am onwards for about an hour
Each morning we read a Psalm, a section of the Old Testament and a section of the New. We discuss, debate and generally digest them.
We're badly named – since we do relatively little praying (though we do meet in the morning). However we usually conclude with a time of quiet reflection and sharing the Lord's Prayer together. We're shortly going to rebrand ourselves –Discover: Story, Conversation and Quiet
We're pleased to welcome new-comers – we'll explain the plot if you come in half way through!
Family Service - Sue Taheny
This is a very small group who try to offer something for everybody on the first Sunday of every month
We know we don't always get it right, but always enjoy the challenges that each month brings.
The team is made up of Rob or Elizabeth, Sue Taheny Diane Newman and Lis Hallam.
We have made a big effort this year to try and nclude the whole family during our worship times, and always welcome comments, whether negative or positive.
If anybody is interested in joining, please speak to Rob or Elizabeth.
Late Night Opening– Sing Praise! - Elizabeth Moore-Bick
A small group of us continued to meet, enjoying the chance to explore Bible stories in their entirety, such as Jonah and Ruth
Towards the end of the year it came to feel as though it had run its course
We've started something new - ‘Sing Praise'. A chance to learn more and deepen our faith through song.
When and where: last Wednesday of the month, 8pm in church. Come and listen, sing-along or play (extra musicians always welcome
