God is ‘calling the shots’

Please join us back at Archbishop Benson School this week as we look at how we are saved by grace through faith.  A sign of our faith is in how we act. Paul encourages the Philippians to be ‘blameless and pure children of God’.  So we are called to be confident our salvation is sure because it is the work of God not us. 

Services will be all age and have interactive activities for everyone to enjoy. There will be refreshments served both at the beginning and end of the service. 

Part-time youthwork appointment

We are delighted to announce that, following advertising and a succesful interview process, Naomi Harwood has been appointed to support the youth ministry across Trinity Churches for ten hours a week, starting in September. Please join us in praying for Naomi.

Weekly Prayer Points

Each week there will be a few things for our church life and church family that we can join in praying for:

1. Thank you Lord for your grace and mercy. We are grateful for the gift of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. Please help us to grow in relationship with you and lead others to know your saving grace.

2. Father God we prayer for the continuing work of Mercy Rescue and for Jedidah and her team. We particularly pray for Jedidah as she travels to Switzerland this week with her daughter Una to meet supporters of Mercy Rescue and share with them the work that is happening in Kenya. We ask for increased provision for them as they deal with expensive hospital fees for some of their children.

3. Thank you for St Johns Church and for their leader Rev Will Harwood. We pray for any holiday makers that may attend St John’s church over the holidays, and for Rev Chris Parsons who will be leading them whilst Will is on holiday.
