Activity Tables for August
Over the summer holidays, we give our faithful Sunday Kids Team a break from the usual Sunday structure and keep all children and young people in the service. We provide them with engaging table activities related to the topic being discussed. We need a couple of people to prepare table activities for Sunday August 23rd and Sunday August 30th. If you are able to help with this, please let Livvi or Ben, our curates, or Amanda, our parish administrator, know.
Prayer Meetings
Our main prayer meetings throughout the week are at 10am on Tuesday mornings at the curates house, and one at 9.45am on Sundays before the church service. Please join these meetings if you are able and speak with Ben and Livvi if you need additional information. We are also discerning more ways we can be praying as a church throughout the week and will keep you updated.
Dawn’s Leaving Service
On Sunday 2nd August, Revd Dawn will be having her final church service with us, as a final goodbye before leaving for pastures new. If you would like to contribute to Dawn’s leaving gifts, please do this by Sunday 19th July. There is a special setting on the church machine – please speak to the churchwardens about this. There will also be a card laid out on the next few Sunday mornings that we can all sign.
Weekly Services:
This Sunday, we will be continuing our series on ‘The Church,’ looking at Acts 2:42-47 and the four key pillars of the early church. Livvi will be speaking on the fourth pillar, ‘Fellowship.’ There will be groups for all children and young people who are aged 16 and under.
Midweek Service at Glenvale Care Home:
Parish Prayer:
There are two opportunities to pray together as a parish each week:
1) Sunday mornings from 9.45am in the glass pod off the corridor at Glenvale School.

Thank you to you all for your sacrificial giving. Our recommended route for regular giving is the Parish Giving Scheme (PGS) and there is a letter on the welcome table at church with the details. However, people are welcome to give in whatever way suits them and please consider gift aiding your contribution so that the church receives an extra 25%.
