Living Christianity: Real Christianity for Real People
This is a new training programme for us all in the Willesden Area, offering a range of short courses to encourage Christians of different stages to deepen their knowledge, understanding and spiritual life. See the leaflet with today's sheet and a colour poster and fliers are in the centre. Courses start this autumn - sign up soon! Speak to Simon or Jo if you want to discuss further what's on offer.
Minor prophets? Major message!
What do you know about Micah, Haggai, Joel, Habakkuk, Malachi, Zechariah and Zephaniah? During our Summer Sunday all age services, from July 27th to September 7th we will be finding out more about the so-called 'Minor Prophets' in the Old Testament.
Counters needed
We need a few more people to help count the collection every Sunday morning. Counters work in pairs and are on the rota about once a month. We need people who are on the electoral roll, regular worshippers here, are aged over 18 and numerate. Guidance is given and you will be paired with an experienced counter to learn the role. Please see Ray or Lucy if you are interested.
A bit of a do for Wendy Hancock in October
Many will know and remember Wendy Hancock who retired to Australia 3 years ago. During her ministry here Wendy touched and helped many people at St Joseph's. She was the first Dovetail Co-ordinator and played a big part in the life of St Joseph’s with her husband Richard who died suddenly in 2004.
In October Wendy is in the UK for 2 months, and I am organising a bit of a do at the Dovetail Centre on Saturday 11th October from 7.30pm and all are invited to share and talk over old times. Wine and nibbles and various soft drinks will be provided. Entertainment from the band Wendy's Lost Boys.
It would be a great help to me regarding catering if you could RSVP via the following:
e.mail: pathannington1@aol.com or tell me personally.
Thank you, Pat Hannington
To all the church family at St Joseph's
Thank you for welcoming me as part of your church family. In my short time here God has given me great blessings. I will be leaving with great memories and with feelings of being loved. May God continue to bless you and the church in all your future ministry. Love from Denise Dodd Cranmer Hall, St John's College, Durham
