'The
Magazine'
Another October deadline to think about! As the next edition of the church magazine covers the Christmas and New Year period, it would be nice to produce a 'bumper' edition…

Next
Week Sunday 20th October
Revd Jon Barrett from Mission and Ministry will be
speaking at both the 9:15 and the 10:45 services. The time together will help
us get ready and prepare our hearts for the Bishop’s Big Conversation the first
weekend in November.
The weekend with the Bishop is a time where we can
share our faith with our communities. It is a time to come out of the church
and share with others the love of God. So I hope that many of you will join in
some of the activities across the weekend and bring along any friends that
might want to know it bit more about who God is or why things are happening in
our world. No question is too big or too small to ask.
So
here is what the weekend will hold:
Please
Pray for:
·
Mollie Alexander
·
Elizabeth Tacey
·
Andrew and Mary Porter
·
Baby Willow Coates
·
Christine Higgins
·
Dave and Helen

Friday-
1st Nov

who would like to engage the Bishop with questions that might have.

those in the pub with questions for the Bishop
Saturday-
2nd Nov
9:00-10:15 am Breakfast Buffet at the Pug and
Greyhound. Cost is £10 a head but this one is a very specific event. The idea
is that if you buy a ticket you will be given a free ticket to bring someone with
you who is not a Christian, someone who would like to know more about who God
is. There will be breakfast with the Bishop and his team having conversations
around the table as we enjoy the meal and then the Bishop will give a short
word at the end of the time there.
10:30-12:00 Story time with the Bishop for toddlers
and young children in the Community Library. There will be stories, crafts, tea
and coffee.
1:00 pm Family Fun Day in Burton Overy starting at
Kingarth Diary Farm. We will have a lovely time there with some activities and
then walk to the next farm for 2:00 where there are sheep and chickens and
different activities. We will finish our day with tea and cakes in the village
hall at 3:30 pm.
Sunday
3rd Nov
The Bishop and his team will be joining us for both
services.
9:00 am at Carlton Curlieu and
10:30 am at Great Glen. We will have a bring and
share lunch after the 10:30 service so please do sign up to bring some food to
share. It will be a great way to finish our weekend together.
As
you can imagine this is going to take a team effort so please do think about
what events you can help at and how you can be a part of this exciting
adventure of sharing God’s kingdom with our neighbours and friends.
Advance
Notice:
Sunday 27th October, 10:30 am – Team
Launch service at St Peter’s Church in Oadby. The bishop will be with all five
churches to launch our team. There will be no morning services in Great Glen or

as a team together.
