Notices for Week Commencing 2nd June 2025

Peace, I leave with you; my peace I give you. John 14 v 27

We offer you all a very warm welcome especially if you are a visitor and to those who will be watching the DVD during the week and to Alan Beesley who is leading our service this morning.

PRAYER

Please pray for our Ministers – Rev Chris Preece, who is now on sabbatical, and Rev Hannah Chun.

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

NOTICES

Colchester Methodist Circuit Newsletter is available and there are some copies on the table in the vestibule.

Christian Aid Week 2025. As a circuit donations were made to the total of £587.50 (including gift aid).

Anna Chaplain – Colchester Methodist Circuit is seeking to employ an Anna Chaplain to reach out to older people across Colchester and the surrounding areas. This is a new and exciting role to develop and extend the work and mission of the Circuit. Please see the job advert on the notice board if you or anyone you know would be interested in this very worthwhile opportunity.

Rev Hannah Chun is due to be ordained on Sunday 29th June in Telford. Following the morning service, where she will be received into Full Connexion, the ordination service will take place at St Chad’s church in Shrewsbury from 4pm. It is hoped both services will be live streamed into Wimpole Road for people to be involved in celebrating Hannah’s special day.

Sunday Services on DVD – If you, or anyone you know, would like a copy of our Sunday morning service on DVD please speak with Geoff or one of the stewards.

Midweek Prayer Time – every Thursday. A short service of prayer and reflection. Everyone welcome.
