Facebook: Blessing or Curse?
What are our children getting up to online? Is what they are doing safe? How can we stay informed and involved in a healthy way? Join Dan Ovens (Youth Pastor) for a Social Networking (that’s Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and all that jazz) Seminar to explore together the blessings and dangers of the online world. This Thursday 9th February at 7:30pm in the Church Hut. See Dan for more details.

It will be for those individuals who feel called to pray and fast in this way. More information to follow in the coming weeks.
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.
…OPPORTUNITIES TO SERVE…
Evening service teas
We are looking for someone in the 6pm service to do teas/coffees after the service on a monthly basis. One of the team has dropped out so we need some help. The commitment would be just one Sunday evening a month. Please contact Louise in the office or Terry Pollard. Thank you.
Toddler Group
