Postcard from Göteborg January 2017
Gott Nytt Ã…r!   Happy New Year!  We’re back in Gothenburg after an enjoyable Christmas in Northern Ireland.  We give thanks for the blessing of family and friends.
Praise God for our Inside Track on the Christian life, with our youth group, last Saturday.  Thank-you for praying!  We had three talks throughout the day as well as food, bowling and a film.  One girl had travelled 1 ¾ hrs from Mullsjö to be with us for the day.  
It’s back to school for all 5 of us this week.  Andrea begins a new language course and Trevor will be preparing for an exam at the end of January.  As a family, we’ve just started Bruce Ware’s Big Truths for Young Hearts in our daily devotions.  What a joy to discover together the greatness of our God, may he be ‘the supreme treasure of our lives’!
This Saturday is a time of prayer and fasting for Gothenburg International Baptist Church.  Thank-you so much for being part of this prayerful partnership.  Together with you all, we look ‘to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think …‘ Trevor, Andrea, Emily, Grace & Alice xx

Summer Readers

 Hi folks As we enter our summer period, please find our readings and hymns for July 2025. Each Sunday there will be a selection of parishioners reading our lessons - as shown on our list. If you're not available for the given Sunday, please feel free to ask someone to cover - and our church wardens and clergy are always available as a backup on the day. Alternatively, if you would like to read a lesson in Church, drop me a message, comment on Facebook, or speak to us at the services. We would love to add new readers of all ages, Gid's Word is for us all.  Blessings Johnny  

August Hymns and Readings

 Hi folks Here's the next list for the readings, readers and hymns for our services throughout August. There are five Sundays this month, and in our normal pattern, our fifth Sunday will be a Cafe Church service in the Parish Hall. As ever - this is just a guide, if you need to swap your date - just let someone know. Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to read each month, and if you'd like to join the list, please let the church wardens or the Rector know. If we need to do so, both David and the Rector are more than happy to fill in for any given reading! 

AccessNI Check process

 Hi folks Please see the following pages for the process of getting our AccessNI accreditation for our Sunday School and GFS leaders and helpers. You will need to print out the pages and keep a special note of the long number provided to you by email and let me know as soon as possible. We require an Enhanced check for everyone - and use the PIN number 918066 as detailed on the first page. The second page details the forms of identification you will need to provide - one from the first group, and two from the second group. The quicker we can all get the checks completed, the sooner we can get everything back to normal and put this whole process behind us for another three years! If you can photograph yourself (by smartphone or tablet) and email (revdjohnny@gmail.com) or WhatsApp (07488371680) them to me, that'd be great. I will also be available at the Parish Hall on Monday evening from 7pm to 8pm to help you with anything you would like assistance with! If you need any help at all...
