Notices of Week of 6 January 2025
FAREWELL TO CHRIS AND RUTH
What a lovely send off we were able to give Chris and Ruth last Sunday. I am sure they felt very loved with all your good wishes, prayers and contribution. Thank you to everyone who contributed to make the day so special and making such a great effort on what was a very difficult day because of the weather!
KAJO-KEJI AND SOUTH SUDAN PRESENTATION
As weather conditions stopped many from coming to Cathie and John’s presentation on Kajo-Keji, there will be another opportunity on Thurs Jan 16th, 7.30pm START!
BEING RESTORED, 6.30 pm – 8.00 pm ON THE FIRST AND THIRD SUNDAYS OF THE MONTH
From the beginning of 2025 our evening service – ‘Being Restored’ – will be enjoying a selection of speakers on the theme of ‘The Fruits of The Spirit’. These different speakers each have their own perspective and style and will be exploring how we can cultivate these fruits in ourselves as we continue to grow in Christ, and at how we can propagate these fruits; how we can encourage their growth in our brothers and sisters too, so working out the application of the Word in our lives.
Being Restored is an informal spirit-led and inspired evening of worship, teaching, and prayer, where those of all ages and experiences can grow in Christ, and freely express the works of the Holy Spirit in our lives as an encouragement to all.
It would be great to see you there, new people are always welcome and, even if you’ve not been for a while, do come along to be a part of this engaging new series.

MISSION PARTNER FOCUS – ALIANCA OOPTITTIKUXA
Please pray for:-
Mozambique:
God’s provision of peace for the country, rain for the crops, and finances
God’s wisdom to know how to proceed and respond in this turmoil and chaos and uncertainty.
That despite the turbulence, Community of Joy church congregations would be strengthened to the point that members are equipped to share God’s love both with the good news of the gospel, and practical learnings for every day life with their neighbours.
