Go Deeper – Live! Next Sunday 15th January we have our first Go Deeper evening worship, with contemporary worship music, prayer, and teaching on the Book of Ruth. Join us in church at 6:30pm to Go Deeper with God and each other.
Faith & Christmas and Morning Prayer Videos We hope you enjoyed the Faith and Christmas video series, the last one should drop next Friday! After that, our weekly Moring Prayer videos should resume. If you love this, why not join the team? Have a word with Rob or anyone who already does it!
Lay Eucharistic Ministry Training A two hour in-person course will take place in church on Sunday 22nd January, 1-3pm, to enable lay people to feel confident about administering the sacraments (consecrated bread and wine) during a service of Holy Communion. For more information and to book, please click here. If you will be attending straight after a service, please bring some lunch.
Faith in Business Our very own Richard Jobes has written the 'God on Monday' piece, "Flickering Justice" for the C of E this week. It's excellent – you can find it online here.
Prayers Please remember in your prayers the family of our dear brother in Christ, Malcolm Raistrick. His funeral will take place in Church on Wednesday 18th January at 11am. May he Rest in Peace and Rise in Glory.
On a broader note, we have begun including individuals in our intercessions on Sunday mornings. Do look out for the bookmarks that will be available with a list of those prayer needs. If you would like to be prayed for, you can write your request on a tag and hang it on the prayer tree, email Sally or Rob, or just have a word with us on Sunday mornings.
Sunday Rota The Sunday service rota for January & February has been emailed out to all those who are on it and paper copies are available in Church. If you attend the 11am service, why not consider joining the rota to help with coffee or as a welcomer to greet people at the door? Please speak to Sally if interested.
Animal Farm! For a number of years we have had various animals in the Victorian part of the churchyard, including, goats, sheep, and of course the beautiful alpacas. At present we have three ‘Easy Care Sheep’ helping to keep the vegetation down. The church has a small band of willing volunteers who care for these sheep ensuring they are fed and watered daily, and we are now looking for an enthusiastic volunteer to join our team to help organise the team rota as well as oversee the general husbandry and welfare of the sheep. If you're interested in finding out more, or may know someone from the community who may be interested, please contact John Corbin ([email protected]).
Lifts to Church We have a couple of people in Rodley who would appreciate a lift to church for the 9:15am Sunday service and to the T.A.G group on a Tuesday Afternoon. If you can help, please contact Revd. Rob.
Bring & Share Lunch As a church, it’s good to meet and eat together. We’ve not done it for a while, so we have one planned for after the services on Sunday 29th January. Save the date and watch out for more details!
