Thanks for an enjoyable breakfast
Those of us who participated in the Palm Sunday breakfast last week wish to thank all those involved in providing the delicious food, serving us and clearing up afterwards.
It was a great opportunity for fellowship together as a church family and it was much appreciated.
Walk
If you enjoy exploring the local countryside, especially when all the spring flowers are blooming, and if you are wondering how to spend your Bank Holiday Monday, then join us for a walk from Nuthurst on 6th April. It will be a figure of eight walk of about 8 miles in total. It would be possible to just do the morning walk of just over 4 miles. Meet at church at 9.45am.

"Called To Influence" Course
Have you ever considered that God’s missional plan for you sits in your everyday life? Only a small percentage of Christians are called to full time church ministry, but we are all instructed to, “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” (Matthew 28:19) By radically changing the way you think about work and learning how to partner with God as you go about your daily activities, you can experience greater job satisfaction as you bring Kingdom influence and transformation to those around you. Wherever God has positioned you, this is where you are called to influence.
This course begins on the 22nd April and continues over seven consecutive Wednesday evenings, 19.00-21.00 via Zoom. To learn more about the course and to sign up if interested contact www.calledtoinfluence.com/grouptraining.
