Operation Christmas Child
Thank you to everyone who has made up shoeboxes this year for Operation Christmas Child. They have all been taken to the warehouse where they will be loaded up for transportation.
Bookworms
The next meeting of our Church reading group is on Monday 4th December at 7.30 pm in the
function room of the Childwall Abbey Pub. All are welcome. The book we will be looking at in December is Pulitzer prize winner, The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck. It is the poignant story of a Chinese peasant farmer and his family in old agrarian China. It talks of the importance and power of the land and raises many questions about values in life which are as pertinent today in our society as they were back then in China. We look forward to seeing many of you there!
VESTRY HOUR every Tuesday from 7pm in church
To book a Baptism or a Wedding or speak to a member of the clergy, please come to Vestry Hour which is held in the church every Tuesday, no appointment is necessary. Please use the wooden door to the left of the tower. You do not need to knock; just come in, take a seat and you will be seen privately in turn.
Your Church family needs You!
Please prayerfully consider whether you would be willing to stand as a Warden or Deputy Warden.
Rediscover the joy of the Bible for all your community!
Riding Lights take on the Bible, right across the UK
“So theologically clever and brilliant.” “Absolute joy and so funny.”
Riding Lights is
delighted to be supported by Bible Society to bring you INSPIRED …The Word Into Action – a show that’s alive with insight and wonder. We want every audience member to leave with a renewed sense of the riches to be found in their Bible and a hunger to know more.
“I’m bowled over by Riding Lights’ ability to make plain the complex, with humour and powerful theatre. Be aware – attending this show may change your world!”
Luke Walton, Bible Society
“As with Open the Book, the stories are shared in a way that is fun, interactive and memorable. We are excited to support Inspired 2023” Kerry Evans, Open the Book, Bible Society
Hold onto your seats and enjoy vivid extracts exploding into action as the Word gets down to Earth and mixes it with human beings. There’s wit, wisdom, faith and folly, as well as… a remarkable Welsh gift to the world.
In classic Riding Lights style, with vitality, respect and some glorious humour, you can look forward to fabulous jewels from the big book, as well as less familiar gems from parts that perplex or inspire the church today.
Starting in the gorgeous gardens of Eden (an area of outstanding natural beauty) and ascending via any number of historic people, heritage sites, INSPIRED brings you blockbusting stories about men, women and God before finishing with an amazing wide-screen glimpse into the end of time.
