Please continue to pray for us as we seek to discern God’s will and direction for us.

Lord Jesus Christ, you command and inspire your church to make disciples: may our church be a joyful and vibrant community of welcome, worship and service, spreading hope to those around us and attracting others to the fire of your love;
may your Spirit be at work through our Growth Action Planning, helping us to catch a vision for your church and to serve you faithfully, to your glory and honour. Amen.


Fairtrade
Changing the world—Join in by swapping your usual stuff for Fairtrade stuff. Swapping your usual stuff for Fairtrade stuff is a brilliantly small step to making the world a fairer place. It means that you get to show your support for developing world producers through what you buy. Two billion people - a third of humanity - survive on less than $2 a day. Unfair trade rules keep them in poverty, but they face the global challenges of food shortages and climate change too. Fairtrade believes that developing world producers should be in control of their own lives, by getting a better deal for the work that they do. This is a different way of doing business. It's a way that puts the poorest of the world first. Look around our map and find out how Fairtrade is changing the lives of farming communities worldwide. And learn a bit about the stuff that you’re swapping too.


Flower Lists Please sign 2010 lists at the back of church. If the week you want is
taken for Altar Flowers, you can sign to have a vase on the steps. Please indicate if
they are in memory of a loved one, to be included in the Parish Magazine. Thanks.


Parish Prayers and Compline
The next monthly prayer meeting will be on Wednesday 21st July 8-9pm, there is Morning Prayer during the week to start the day at 8.30am Monday to Friday. Without prayer backing the parish won’t grow. Please join in this important aspect of our church life.
