Giving

There are many in our parish who regularly give to the church through a Direct Debit to our bank account. If you do – firstly thank you so much for your generosity! As we mentioned in the APCM it would be a great help if you transferred across to using the Parish Giving Scheme. As charity rules, tax claims etc become more complicated it is increasingly becoming a big task to claim back the 20% we can get on top of your gift. Joining the Parish Giving Scheme makes it all so much easier for us – and easier for you too!

Also don’t forget that if you give on the card machine as long as your gift is £30 or under we can claim 25% back on that too!

If these seems complicated – watch this video!

Have a blessed weekend!

At our last count we had 42 children connected to our Church.

We have a new plan for this Sunday which is as follows:

Creche

If you have a child who is not in school yet – we’ve made a new creche – you will need to stay with them!

If your child is in school years Reception – Year 5 – then you go to the café area where we have coffee as usual

If your child is in school years 6 to Year 11 – then you go to the upper room up the stairs.

If you’re in years 12 upwards we have a new plan – will let you know ASAP.

Around the Parish through the Week

A reminder of what we get up to on a weekly basis – don’t forget there is something going on around the Parish almost every day.

The summer holidays are nearly at an end so to celebrate the end of the summer we are going to gather at St Pauls on Tuesday 27th August for a Cream tea. All are welcome.

Christmas Planning

Yes – it is that time again.  We’re always open to rethinking how we celebrate the birth of Jesus!  If you want to come and talk/pray about how to communicate this wonderful message to the Parish please come to St Paul’s on 18th September at 7.30pm.

This week we are continuing with our  series – Al Massira.  Over the summer we will be looking at well known Bible Stories but particularly how they can be meaningful to Muslims – who might see them differently. Al Massira explores the messages and signs of the Old Testament prophets and their fulfilment in the person of Jesus throughout all scripture. In Arabic ‘Al Massira’ means a journey, the idea of setting out in the company of others.

This Sunday we will be looking at The Messiah and our reading will be from Luke 4:14-22

Our service is at 10.30am at St Paul’s Church.

We will be restarting Sunday School in September – so apologies that our children will stay in – we’ll do our best to keep it interesting for all!The live stream of the service is here. We will start streaming at 10.25am.
