Worship on Wednesday. Oct 31st

at 3pm “Just a Word" Theme:

Prophecy in the Old Testament.

Speaker: Frank Robinson.

WELCOME to our service today at Christ Church! We thank you

for joining us today as we meet to worship our Lord Jesus Christ.

We pray that you will be blessed and feel a part of His family here.

If you are new, please make yourself known to us. Please fill in the

New@ leaflet from the holder behind the welcome desk and pass

it to one of the team. Do stay after the service for refreshments

and a chat. If you would value prayer for any concern, please see

the prayer ministry team who are available after every service.

PRAYER FOR THE PERSECUTED CHURCH

Open Doors and Barnabas Fund exist to serve our persecuted

brothers and sisters in different ways throughout the world.

Can you believe it....?

• 215 million believers face persecution for their faith in

Christ; they are beaten, killed, forcibly detained, denied

education and job opportunities, their churches and

homes bombed and burned, their children abducted ...

• Hindu extremists in India have threatened to wipe out

every non-Hindu religion by 2021. ...

• 60,000 North Korean Christians are receiving food,

clothes and medicines to help them survive

• Pakistan is the second most dangerous place to be a

Christian. Aasia Bibi has been in prison for nine years

after defending her beliefs when she was ridiculed. She

could face the death penalty

• More than 100,000 South Sudanese Christian refugees

have fled to Camp Rhino in northern Uganda this year

alone, where Barnabas Fund has already provided food

aid to save countless lives

• Just £15 would provide three children with a Bible each,

to ensure that the next generation of believers is able to

learn about Jesus and grow in their faith

CHRISTMAS CHOIR

PLEASE JOIN US,

PARTICULARLY IF YOU

ARE MALE!

The Traditional Carol Service is

a significant part of our

Christmas outreach. People

enjoy listening to the choir

items as well as singing carols.

We have a smaller choir at the

9am service and it is

augmented by people who join

the choir just for Christmas;

around 4 weeks of practices.

Each year, I hope that more

men will join us. Last year, I

had four men, but one has now

left the area and it is very hard

to make three men sound like

a full choir. While is helpful to

be able to read music, many

who join don’t, and we try to

have sound files of the carols

that we sing. It is fun, a

satisfying achievement and if

we want a choir at the Carol

Service, we need singers!

Practices will be held in late

November and December.

If you would like to find out

more, please contact Pam Price

tidy up. Please contact Judith
