Souper Friday will be celebrating the Jubilee! Come along from 9am for refreshments, strawberries and cream, or a yummy cream tea! We’re planning to broadcast the Thanksgiving Service from St. Paul’s Cathedral live!

Joint service on the green (the actual green!) – Sun 5th June

Plans are being made to meet for our monthly joint service on the green in Rudloe – we will literally be Church on the Green! We will meet at 11am for a time of open air worship and the Word, celebrate the Platinum Jubilee and glorify God together! Bring your folding chairs and picnics and gird your loins for a game of rounders! Please pray for this event – for the planning, the weather and that God will draw the community in to worship with us.

Commissioning service for Rob Durant, our new Senior Pastor – 12th June

We will be joining together as one CBC congregation on 12th June at 11am at Priory Street to formally welcome Rob as our new Senior Pastor. Eddie Larkman will be preaching and we are looking forward to celebrating God’s provision for us as a Church and to committing Rob to the Lord. The service will be followed by tea and cake and if you are able to help by baking or serving on the day, please contact Liz Perks who is coordinating the practical arrangements.

Opportunities to serve

1. Pam Mitchell has been faithfully leading the Craft Group for many years. She will be stepping aside from leading the group and we are looking for a new person to take over this role. If you feel that could be you, Pam would love to hear from you and talk you through all the details. Please note that June’s craft group will meet on 11th June, not the 4th due to the church being unavailable on that day.

2. Ben Ross would like to let you know that more help is required on the sound desk at the 11.15 services to assist with the streaming. If you or your tech savvy teenagers would like to help, please chat to Ben!
