Missions and Persecuted Church Prayer

Ladies’ Bible Study

Notes for the next study on the 27th February are on the table at the back. Please take a sheet in preparation. If you have any questions about these meetings, or would like a “study buddy”, please chat to Kathy Larkman or Anne Holmes.

Grace Place

Ladies, please remember to visit our Grace Place blog which has articles and insights which will encourage and bless you… https://cbcgraceplace.wordpress.com/

Midweek Service

The next midweek service will take place this Wednesday at 2pm. The service lasts for one hour and is followed by tea/coffee and home-made cakes. Please speak to Eric Seager for more information.

Prayer and Fasting Week : Monday 27th March to Sunday 2nd April

It will be for those individuals who feel called to pray and fast in this way. More information to follow in the coming weeks.

The Ark

This will take place on Saturday 25th Feb at 10am for 0-7 year olds. Speak to Heather Chilcott or Alexa Simm for more details.

Lost Property

There is a lost property table and box in the coffee hall next door. There are a large number of items that have been left in the building, ranging from clothing to kitchen items to books and bibles. Please go through the items and see if anything belongs to you. Unclaimed belongings will be disposed of after a few weeks! Many thanks.

Toddler Group

We are still looking for someone to take on the leadership of the Toddler Group on Thursday mornings. Please speak to Kathy Larkman if you feel this is a role which you could take on.

Opportunities for Regular Giving

If you would like to give to the work of the church on a regular basis, you might wish to consider setting up a standing order through your bank. Alternatively, some people find it helpful to use a weekly numbered blue donation envelope for their offering. And of course, if you are a UK tax payer, then the value of your gift can be increased by 25%, at no extra cost to yourself, if you complete a Gift Aid Declaration.

If you would like to enrol on the blue envelope scheme for 2017, or would like to set up a standing order or make a Gift Aid Declaration, do please speak to one of the Treasury Team: Roger Hammett (Priory Street 11.15 Service); Lynne Little (Church on the Green, Rudloe) or Michael Prior (Priory Street 9.15 Service).

 

This week is half term so some groups will not meet. Please contact your life group leader to see whether you are meeting
