Pat Knowles reports BMS Birthday Scheme – July Birthdays

Richard Ostler 24th. Valerie Lindridge 26th. Annie Harding 30th.

By giving a gift to the BMS Birthday Scheme every year on your birthday, you’re doing something amazing – you’re sharing the gift of life. Every gift given to the Birthday Scheme supports our life-transforming health work. In 2019 WBC folk enabled £723 to be sent to help medics in Chad keep vulnerable mothers and babies safe in childbirth. It can support children with disabilities in Thailand, providing them with a loving home in a society which often rejects them. And it can help struggling people in Uganda access speech therapy, giving them the opportunity to communicate with the world around them.

Every year, Birthday Scheme members donate over £250,000! These gifts are having a huge impact, saving and transforming lives in countries across the world

When? Each Wednesday at 7.30pm for 40 minutes!

Why? looking at Philippians Ch 1 vs 12 -30

" Advancing the Gospel"..

The opportunity for Prayer Ministry has long been part of our worship practice. In the present absence of face to face meetings – this ministry will logically transfer to the telephone. Anyone wanting prayer is asked to contact Richard Ostler or Derek Barkaway who will arrange for one of the prayer team to contact you. MEMBERS OF THE PRAYER TEAM – and

new volunteers – are asked to also contact either Richard or Derek confirming their availability.

In a Church Meeting at the start of 2020, Amy shared an exciting idea which was warmly approved. Sadly, the coronavirus crisis has made the planned summer term start impossible. Here is an update and call

to a summer of prayer and preparation, Hi Everyone,

A very exciting opportunity is

coming soon and we are very lucky

as a church to be able to host this

new group for children who are

Home-schooled.

It will need lots of helpers as it is

looking like this will be a popular

group, there are 81 families already on the waiting list, we will only be taking 40

and will see how it goes.

I do ask you please keep praying for this project. that lots of new relationships will

be made from this group. Will you please also pray for me as I work out the

content of a programme and the resources needed that will be exciting and fun for

all the children who come. There will be a lot of pressure for this activity to be

amazing and it can only be amazing if we have enough helpers.

If you feel you could help in anyway with this group, please speak to me, (details in

header on page 1) some of the jobs will be setting the group up and then talking to

each family that comes to the group, we will also need people to help with

refreshments, of course all the team will need to be DBS checked. If you don’t

currently have a DBS but would like to be involved please contact me or Mike Davis

and we can get the form done ASAP.

I look forward to hearing from you Amy Tamblyn

The poster says is all! The Covid-19 crisis

has fuelled complications but we need to be

ready for “the off” when allowed. Would

anyone be interested in joining an online

(Zoom) prayer time?? Speak to Elgan or Amy
