Odds & ends
Light Party

On the 31st October each year we  hold our own special Hallowe’en party for children. Known as a LIGHT PARTY we refuse entry to anyone in black or dressed as anything nasty, but those who come in white or bright clothes and are between 7 and 14 years old will be welcomed at our free party.
Running from 7pm to 9pm it includes games, competitions, lots of free goodies and a beautiful candlelit meditation at the end. So, if you would like to be in the light rather than the dark, come along.
Please note: for security reasons all children must be signed in by a parent or guardian and must be collected afterwards.
Prayer Initiative

This is a way of bringing together everyone who who would like to be a part of the praying community, including: at work (using e-mail); within a fellowship group or the housebound.  

The Prayer Chain is a regular bulletin of prayer requests and is available to anyone. It can be sent by post, delivered by hand or sent by e-mail. Anyone in need of prayer can ask for their name and need to be included and recipients are asked to pray, in whatever way they feel appropriate, for those mentioned.

The Link is a daily prayer support and some issues are available on this web site. For more information, please ask.
