‘There is More’ Last Weekend
We are grateful to God for a remarkable weekend. A great many
people encountered God in new and deeper ways during the course of
the events. It was so good to enjoy fellowship together as a whole
church and to go deeper in our understanding and experience of the
Holy Spirit. We are grateful to Martin and Cesca CAVENDER for their
ministry amongst us and for many others who contributed to the success
of the weekend. Particular thanks to Christina and Frank PONNIAH
and their family for the outstanding Sri Lankan meal on Saturday.
Prayers for the Week
We pray for our world, our country and our local community.
We pray for those known to us and those who are ill, recently bereaved,
homeless, lonely, sad or in difficulty and distress.
Please do continue to keep in prayers baby Jude SKEATES, for complete
healing, and all the family. Prayers are also especially welcomed by
Barbara JURY, Peter WARWICK and Jackie MURRAY – that God would
continue to pour his healing power in and through their lives at this time.
Please pray for Tim and members of the team as they short list potential
Curates for 2015 in the next 10 days.
We pray this weekend for the family of Deborah McBEAN, of Eastworth Road whose funeral
takes place at St. Peter’s Church at 1pm on Monday 20th October.
‘We give thanks to God for the life of Gerry (Geraldine) HARVEY, the oldest
member of our church community who died at the age of 97 earlier this week.
Gerry had a living faith and for many years worshipped regularly with us until
infirmity prevented this. She has been supported regularly by Christine
Pattinson and other members of the pastoral team in recent years.
Details of her funeral will be available next week.’ Tim.
Continue to pray for Canon Andrew WHITE, Anglican Vicar in Baghdad, for protection and for
the presence and power of the Holy Spirit to transform the crises in the Middle East.
A REMINDER FOR PCC MEMBERS ... there is a Special PCC Evening of Prayer
taking place between 8pm and 9.30pm on Monday 20th October in the Chancel.

we are only in the planning stages, we would ask for your PRAYERS going forward and for
anyone interested in finding out more or helping in any way, do please contact Mena.

We do not take a collection within the service. As a church we are 100% self-sufficient
in terms of funding. Many give by standing order or via our Planned Giving Scheme.
If you would like to leave a donation there is a plate available at the back. Thank you.
