'Deep Sea Divers' is Scripture Union's theme this year for our ecumenical holiday club. We'll 'deep dive' into the story of Jesus' life and ministry through the Gospel of Matthew. The club will take place in the Old Parish Centre mornings during the week beginning 29 July, for children who have finished P1-P7. Secondary students are encouraged to take part as helpers. 

If you're interested to help as a volunteer—so many different gifts from so many different people come together to make a great week!—please speak with Jeff Martin. At this time, we especially need volunteers to coordinate the administration of the holiday club.

An Invitation to Prayer, 9-19 May
From the Organisers of Thy Kingdom Come

'Thy Kingdom Come is a global ecumenical prayer movement that invites Christians around the world to pray from Ascension to Pentecost for more people to come to know Jesus. Since it began in May 2016,  God has grown Thy Kingdom Come from a dream of possibility into a movement which unites more than a million Christians in prayer, in nearly 90% of countries worldwide, across 85 different denominations and traditions—praying that friends and family, neighbours and colleagues might come to faith in Jesus Christ.

Every person, household and church are encouraged to pray during the eleven days in their own way. It is our hope and prayer, that those who have not yet heard the Good News of Jesus Christ and his love for the world, will hear it for themselves and respond and follow him.

Specifically, we again invite each and every Christian across the globe to pray that God’s Spirit might work in the lives of five people who have not responded with their ‘Yes’ to God’s call. Whether you have joined in ‘Thy Kingdom Come’ before or not, we invite you to take part and join in.'

'In praying "Thy Kingdom Come" we all commit to playing our part in the renewal of the nations and the transformation of communities.'
~ Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury
