We are pleased to be back in the school hall on Sunday 20 February.

As usual we have a Bible Story (parable of the Lost Coin) some fun activities which are not just for children but anyone who is young at heart and a shared tea at the end.

Contact Rev Geoffrey Clement 832514 for more Information

During Lent we will be looking at On The Third Day during our homegroups. This is a 5 session course from York Courses.

York Courses are easy to use, ecumenical courses suitable for any time of year.

“York Courses really do offer some of the best material for group use, attractively presented, ecumenical, and not tied to a particular season” Church Times Review

Do you want to:

• Learn more about the Christian faith?
• Tackle the biggest questions facing humanity?
• Examine your own beliefs, in fellowship with others?

More details can be found here: lent group 2022 OTTD-A4-poster-in-Word-hi-res (1)

We will meet on Mondays at 11am on zoom or 6.30pm in the Benefice Centre (there may be a zoom option). Monday 7, 14, 21, 28 March and 4 April.

Books are available to purchase for £5. Get in touch with Geoffrey to find out more [email protected] Tel 01993 832514.
