Bring and Share Sunday
A ‘Bring and Share’ lunch takes place at 12 noon on Sunday 31st May. This is our next fellowship event and this time we have decided to suggest the foods that should be brought. Please put your name next to a suggestion or, if you have a speciality dish, please fill that in at the bottom of the list on the back table. This will be a lovely time of sharing food and also friendship. If you are unable to bring any food, do please still come along as there should be plenty to go round. Please bring the food on the Sunday morning and take it to the back rooms. See Alison for further details. Thank you very much.
Know and Grow
We have a new KNOW AND GROW course beginning this evening, 17th May, at 6.00 p.m. We will be looking at the person and work of the Holy Spirit in the New Testament. All are very welcome.
Private Prayer
During May we will be opening the Church for special times of private prayer on seven occasions across the month. The final two sessions will be held on Saturday 24 May between 10.00am and 12 noon and on Sunday 25 May between 6.00pm and 7.00pm. Please come and join us.
Walking Group
The next Christchurch Walking Group takes place on Saturday 23rd May. The plan is to meet at Christchurch at 10.00 a.m. and travel to The Clothiers Arms in Stroud, park the cars, and then enjoy a gentle walk along the canal before returning to The Clothiers for lunch. If you would like to take part, please contact Pauline or Sheila.
Christian Aid Week
If you would like to contribute to the CHRISTIAN AID WEEK appeal, please return an envelope during the collection in our service anytime over the next three weeks. There are spare envelopes available in the vestibule.
Card Machine
Do you often find yourself without cash when in Church? We have now set up the card machine to accept small donations for Sunday coffee and biscuits. As the cost of coffee in particular has increased significantly of late, we encourage those who tend not to carry cash to make use of this facility as often as possible. Thank you.
