It's exciting to hear what lots of you are getting up to during the lockdown. Here are just a couple of examples:
A group of our children, aged 3-13, are preparing to do the Ironman Challenge to raise money for the Big Breakfast. Between them they will complete an Ironman Triathlon: 3,860m swim, 180km bike, 42km run over the week from Saturday 13 - Sunday 21 June. You can read more about this and find out how to support them here.
The Parker family have been giving away books from their front garden. 10 Of Those have put together a lockdown box which consists of 60 books for £25 (normal price £93!), including tracts, children's books and apologetic style books. The Parkers have found that the most popular books are the children's books which have a simple, engaging gospel message in them. Is this something you could do? Or join up with some other families and get a box between you?
I love that they're also advertising our online Sunday services and the church website.
Let's pray that God would use all these things for His glory.
