Thank you to everyone who came to the AGM a few weeks ago, and for bringing your opinions and ideas. Over that morning we shared fellowship and discussion around the theme of Our Calling and reflected on how it related to the life of this church. The outcome was an idea under each area of Our Calling:

Worship 

- for the stewards and worship group to join together to plan special services and OA services in advance, and use them as an opportunity to try creative/reflective ways of worship

 - to review the prayer meeting

Learning and Caring 

- to have a church library, with books and resources for all ages

Service

 - to keep an eye on the curtains, looking out for our neighbours

 - to have a 'Bring and Take' event later in the year

Evangelism

 - to develop a prayer corner at the back of the church and have displays from Explorers in the children's corner.

These ideas respond to our calling as disciples here and help the church to move forward. This month also brings Pentecost, when we celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit. May we continue to pray and be open to the Spirit as we worship and witness together.
