Nativity Sunday

With Advent and Christmas just around the corner - our Sunday School children should be rehearsing for their Nativity Sunday service.  This year hasn't been a normal year, as I'm sure you'd understand!  Our Sunday School hasn't been able to meet yet, but we still consider them as a vital part of our church, and wish to have some input from them this year at our Nativity Sunday - whether they can be there or not!

I have managed to find some colouring pages that I'm going to ask our children to colour in.  I have three groups - pre-school, early primary and older primary/secondary.  Having said that - anyone can colour in any or all of the pictures if they wish!  Even the adults are welcome to submit a coloured picture.  Just select the image, print it out, send it in to me! Simples!

Make sure you put your name on the page, and have it back to the church, or to the rectory by 6th December.  You can bring it to church, scan and email it, you can take a photo on your phone and send it to me, or post it through the letterbox!

I love for everyone to send both pictures, or at least the one with the Nativity scene.  We will be showing the pictures on the screens on the Nativity Sunday.  If you are able to come along that Sunday, everyone will be very welcome!

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...

Back to the BCP!!

Hi folks It’s been a long time since the  pandemic  started and the lockdowns - and Covid hasn’t really gone away! I had the dubious honour of getting Covid for the second time just before Holy Week, giving me the chance to think about ministry direction, both my own and in the parish. One of the original responses to the pandemic was to limit our use of the hymn books and our Prayer Books. At the beginning I produced a service sheet with all the relevant liturgy - which we used in the car park and when we returned to the church. Our “temporary measure” lasted almost three years - and it’s time to move on! Our Book of Common Prayer contains our unique identity - in fact the word “Common” doesn’t mean ordinary but that it shows our unity - the liturgy we hold in “common”. We will be returning to our BCPs from this weekend, the Second Sunday of Easter. We will be using Morning Prayer Two - and we will guide us through the service.  We look forward to seeing you in church or...

Second Sunday in Lent

Hi folks Another week has literally flown by - and we've already started the new month!  This Sunday's readings include the best known passage in the Bible, John 3 - the conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus. In this passage, Jesus sums up the whole Gospel message of love, salvation and eternal life in one verse, known to us all as John 3:16. Is this the most important verse in our Holy Scriptures? Possibly, but join us on Sunday to discuss the passage, and how it fits into the Christian life as we know it. Our service is Holy Communion Two, and our readings and passages are listed on our service sheets attached. Our service will be streamed on Facebook (all being well) and shared afterwards on our page if you can't join us live. Blessings Johnny
