Reveal available as a Word doc
Reveal is a large document, that is, there is a lot to read here about the things that
are happening between the churches, it might just be advisable to download the full Word document.
REVEAL issue 16 So here, on this web page, we have just the opening page
Reveal
Edition 16 of REVEAL (March/April 2013)
I'm sure you are all very busy taking part in the Lent courses being offered by
our group of Churches and planning to attend services and talks during Holy Week.
Not to mention organising for the children, within our communities, to celebrate and
understand the true meaning of Easter…..but while you are doing all that take 5 and
catch up with the latest edition of REVEAL…..with your diary to your side obviously!
Key date! ******20th April ******BESTWOOD 6 SOCIAL NIGHT*****More details within
this edition of REVEAL. We hope to have a really good turn out, with the best
(and the worst!) dancing shoes!
If you read on you will find an update from Elizabeth on PMC. If anyone has missed
previous updates on earlier meetings, please let me know and I can forward these on.
Also, Chris Easton is very busy planning Messy Church for the May Half Term and August
Summer Holidays, in addition to Prayer in Schools events - he need volunteers for
everything!!
I've included details of Easter Services that are taking place within Emmanuel
and St Marks, including the 6am, popular sunrise service. I am happy to circulate
details of Services from any of the other Churches separately if someone wants to
let me know these details….please do!
The Bestwood and Bulwell FOODBANK continues to do well, with people dropping in
to collect their food parcels at almost every session. The FOODBANK has recently
given out its 6,000th meal, which certainly proves there is a need for this initiative
to continue, and with the change in government benefits we expect it to be demanded
even more. If you haven't yet got involved, but would like to please get in touch
with Diana The
FOODBANK is open for distributing parcels on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, in
addition to Saturday mornings and is run on a ROTA basis, so you don't have to
commit yourself to attending every week. There is also a sorting session in the
warehouse every Tuesday morning (warm clothes essential, I'm told!!) Diana is
also collecting names for the next Collection Days within TESCO - please offer
your support if you can (just for an hour or two) on 13th April, 11th May
and/or 5/6 th July.
Lastly, from me, please send me details of any events or information you want
publishing to the wider group of Churches at any time during the month.
