Please pray for our Ministers Rev Joe Adams and Rev Chris Preece.

Continue to pray for all others who are in any way troubled, lonely, unwell or bereaved and anyone else who needs our prayers.

NOTICES

Weekly Offering – as mentioned last week we are returning to the idea of having the collection plate just inside the door so that people can leave their offerings as they enter and then the tray can be brought forward for blessing as part of the service.

Midweek Prayer Time will recommence this Thursday. We praise God for the continuing recovery of Alan.

Finance Officer – there is a vacancy in the Colchester and Tendring Methodist Circuit for a part-time finance officer. If you know anyone who would be interested, please see the details on the notice board.
