This service is open to all, from any church, who would wish to attend.  Please inform anyone you know who might be interested in attending.

 

Situations Vacant

We are currently seeking people who could perform one or more of the following tasks  :-

 

  • Church Officer duties at the Evening Service    This would involve opening the doors of the church 30 minutes before the service starts, leading the Minister into the service and locking up at the end of the service
  • Offering Counter   This would involve helping the existing team to count the offerings at the end of the morning and / or evening services.
  • Sunday School Assistant    We still require a person to assist the teaching staff with the children on Sunday mornings for the period from Easter to Summer.

Remembering the series of presentation we have had in the church on the topics of Time and Talents, any member of the congregation who is prepared to give a commitment to carry out any of these important tasks is asked to give their name to Bill Marshall.
