Evening Service
Tonight we’re meeting for our evening service at the usual time of 7pm. We’ll also be meeting to pray before our service in Mobile 1. Our Engine Room prayer time will run between 6.40 and 6.50pm.

Heroes in Training
Parents are asked to collect their children from Mobile 2 at the end of our morning service. Children attending Heroes in the hall will return to their seats before the end of the service.
Treasure Chest
Treasure Chest is meeting this Tuesday morning between 10.15 and 11.15am. You must inform leaders that you are planning to attend. If you would like to be added to the Treasure Chest WhatsApp group, please contact Joan Bonnar.
Midweek
Our midweek meeting will resume this Wednesday night at 8pm. We’ll be continuing our studies in the book of James. The talk will be recorded and uploaded to the church podcast afterwards.

PW Opening Night
PW are holding their opening night this Friday (15th October) in the church hall at 7.30pm. All ladies of the congregation will be made very welcome. The speaker for the night will be Sophie De Witt. She spoke virtually on the theme for this year, Side by Side, at the recent PW Ladies Conference. Covid restrictions will be in place but it will be great to have a long overdue catchup.
There will be an opportunity to purchase toys etc for the Operation Christmas Child appeal (money going to Vision of Good Hope, Moldova). There will also be wrapped shoe boxes available at £1 (money going to PW projects). Ladies are reminded to bring their mission box money and any subscriptions for the Wider World Magazine. Gifts of toiletries, hats, gloves etc for the Seaman’s Mission will also be accepted on that night as the next meeting won’t be until December.
The most important of those things is a mug for a cup of tea at the end of the night!
