This Sunday we are meeting together for our Parish Communion service with Sunday School, 10:30am at St Paul’s Church. We’re continuing our sermon series Proclaiming With… as we explore what God’s people throughout the Bible have said about God and we ask ourselves ‘What have I learned about who God is that I want to tell people about?’
Our Bible reading will be Joshua 24:16-24

Live Worship
We are meeting again tomorrow (Saturday 17th), 10am at St Pauls, to think about musical worship together. We are still hoping to have more people join, especially if you enjoy singing.
Testimonies
Over the coming months we are focusing on famous proclamations of faith in the Bible. To match it we’d love to hear stories from you!
Does anyone have a story about when………
a) You felt like the Holy Spirit spoke through you
OR
b) you still trusted God, despite not having clear answers
Ordinations
Over the coming weeks we have 2 important events at Bradford Cathedral
24th June – Ordination of Priests – 3pm. Emma will be being priested!
25th June – on the Sunday we will be celebrating a LOT! Celebrating Emma’s first celebration of communion – and celebrating Sharon and Daniel’s ministry among us before they move on. We will do this with our very first Parish Bring and Share Lunch – please bring something to eat, and something to share if you can!
1st July – Ordination of Deacons – 11am. Daniel, Sharon and Laity will be being ordained Deacon
Please pray for them all over the next few weeks and get in touch if you’d like to come!
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! It would be a great help though 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! Please speak to Zarine if you want to know more about it – or click the links!
Heaton Gala – 8 July 2023
We hope you can come to this great community event that we are helping organise with other local partners – if you can please show interest on Facebook to share the event.
Sue Jennings – back for a visit
On Thurs 27th July at 7pm, Sue Jennings and her husband Ian will be back in Bradford to tell us about their work in SE Asia – as you know we support them in this work so it would be great if as many as possible could come out to hear them and pray for them.
