Schools Club

Reception to Y6 -

4.00pm to 5.30pm. Games, Bible

stories, crafts. In the beginning, God created

Adam. Then he made Eve.

And ever since we've been

picking up the pieces. In this

new series we are looking at

what God says about love.

How did God create us in right

male/female relationships and

what has gone wrong in the

fallout of a post-Eden world.

We will be looking at love, romance, marriage, family, sex and identity.

The Noise Next Saturday 12th May

The Noise is about showing God’s love practically

and generously to our community. “Be generous

with the different things God gave you, passing

them around so all get in on it: if words, let it be God’s word’s; if help, let

it be God’s hearty help. That way, God’s bright presence will be evident in

everything through Jesus” 1 Peter 4:10 (The Message). We are hosting a

fun day at St Andrew’s and also going out into the community to give a

helping hand. There are lots of different ways to help, do pray and sign up

in the church lounge. Helpers: please meet at the Church at 9.00am

for worship and bacon butties.

Sunday 17th May 7-9pm King’s Church

Thy Kingdom Come is a global prayer movement that

18th May our prayer room will be open 24/7 for people

to pray. There will be several prayer stations to inspire

and encourage you to pray. Sign up for an hour slot (or more) on our web-
