REFLECTION
"Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever."
1 John 2:15-17 (NLT)

Missions Offering
As part of our missions month we take up an offering that means we can support projects beyond our regular, ongoing support. The month of October we will have an offering suitcase at the front of the church. Please pray and consider what you may be able to give to support the growth of God’s Kingdom around the world. This year we will be focusing our offering on supporting indigenous church planters in Africa and supporting the Bentley Family in Spain.

We are excited to hold our first worship club for all the young people at church who would love to learn music and how to worship God through music. The club is open to all those 10 years old and upwards, from beginners to those with some experience in playing an instrument. You will have the chance to learn some worship songs and basic music theory on either guitar, bass guitar, drums, keyboard or vocals. So that your child can get the most out of taking part in forming a band they would need to commit to coming every Saturday possible.
If the date or time is not suitable please let Jose know about your child's interest and we will consider a more suitable time for all and if you have any other questions please also contact Jose. |
