Holiday Club won’t be happening this summer in its normal format. However the organisers are exploring ways to bring the Holiday Club experience to the children in order to keep their interest and bring them closer to Jesus. Please pray for the organisers so that with God’s guidance they may be able to offer something for the children’s enjoyment and spiritual growth.

This virtual choir and band have recorded an amazing version of Matt Redman’s “10,000 Reasons”. Follow the link below to watch this recording on YouTube. Two members of our congregation took part – can you spot them?!

Trust Him.
Trust the Father, Son,
and Holy Spirit,
with those things that you don’t understand, or
that are out of your control.

When you are worried
about tomorrow,
God is not worried!
He knows what will happen –
if you trust in Him,
if you will let The Son, Jesus Christ,
be in control of your life!

For Jesus guides and protects those
who belong to Him,
who choose to believe His promises.

Have faith in God,
His promises are sure.
His love never fails.
He is not worried about tomorrow.

 

Here is the link to a recording of “The Blessing” made by churches across the UK:

A Prayer:
Lord bless our homes.
Bless our communities,
Bless our NHS and all key workers
and bless our World with healing health and peace.
Amen.
