“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.”
John 15 v 1

A very warm welcome to you especially if you are a visitor and to those who will be watching the DVD during the week and to Rev Hannah Chun who is leading our Covenant Service with Holy Communion this morning.

PRAYER

Please pray for our church friends who can no longer join us on a Sunday.

Please pray for our Ministers – Rev Chris Preece and Rev Hannah Chun. Also pray for our Anna Chaplain Jastine Diaz.

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

NOTICES

Maundy Thursday – we are planning on holding our Love Feast again this year and Sheila has offered to host it at her house. Thank you, Sheila. We can arrange lifts for all those who require them and car sharing might be a good idea as well. Please speak with Alan or Christine and we will act as co-ordinators.

Link to Hope – thank you once again to everyone who contributed to this worthwhile shoebox appeal. It has been suggested that we collect items throughout the year to help spread the cost. For example: – 1 Cutlery, 2 Lavender bag or other sensory gift, 3 Socks, 4 Hot water bottle, 5 Pen and paper, 6 Reading glasses, 7 Gloves, 8 Boiled sweets, 9 Soap and flannel, 10 Toothbrush and toothpaste. Plus, knitted knee blankets 1m x 1m always appreciated and handed out with each box.

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 is welcome.
