Mission Prayer Meeting
There will be an opportunity for getting up to date news from some of our mission colleagues and praying for them on Sunday 21st April at 9.15am in the main hall.
PMA – Pleasant Monday Afternoon
The speaker tomorrow is Duncan Warmington of Embrace the Middle East. With all that is going on at the moment in that area of the world, it should be an interesting afternoon. All are welcome from 2.30-3.45pm in the Main Hall.
Walks
The next Saturday walk will be on May 4th.
Isn't Everyone Going to Heaven Anyway?
Saturday 8 June 2024, 2pm at Trafalgar Road Baptist Church
A Seminar with Revd Dr Stephen Finamore (President of Baptists Together 2024-25)
Drawing on his extensive work on the Apostle Paul and particularly his letter to the Romans, Stephen will unpack this subject, often called 'universalism' in a way that will help us better understand the Good News of Jesus. This seminar will encourage the church in being a people who reach out to those who need to hear the message of Christianity.
There will also be a short interview about how Steve sees his role as newly-elected President of Baptists Together and time for Q&A about the whole seminar. Stephen will also be preaching at TRBC the following morning.
Please email events@trbc.info if you intend on attending (so they have a rough idea of numbers). There is a suggested donation of £5 for the seminar.
Horsham District Foodbank 10 year Anniversary
The Horsham District Foodbank is 10 years old this year and there will be a series of awareness events including fundraising campaigns throughout the year. However, this 10-year anniversary is not a celebration as the main aim is to end the need for foodbanks. A Just Giving page has been set up asking residents to donate £10. Additionally, the team are facing unprecedented demand for support from the foodbank and are desperate for donations to help them keep up with the need. Horsham Matters is also urgently requiring donations of bric-a-brac!
Food Bank and bric-a-brac donations
These can be deposited in the green Food Bank box situated in the Reception Area here at BRBC. This will save time and petrol that would be used up if several people made separate individual journeys to Horsham Matters. Also, by using BRBC's holding point, BRBC gets some credit.
The Bereavement Journey, A Place to Talk...
Bereavement can impact hugely and affect all areas of life. “The Bereavement Journey” is for anyone who has been bereaved at any time and in any way. By means of a series of films and discussion groups it gently guides bereaved people through the most common aspects of grief, enabling them to process the implications for themselves and discern next steps. Kingdom Faith Horsham will be running this course over 7 sessions and will be arranging two separate groups:
1. A Daytime Group: 10.30am -12.30pm, at Kingdom Faith, The Hub [United room] starting Monday 13th May and running until 1st July inclusive – with a break on 27 May for the Bank Holiday.
2. An Evening Group: 7.30 – 9.30pm starting Tuesday 14 May and running until 25 June. Various locations.
