Prayer Ministry — what does it involve? This is something we have offered before, and the Stewards and Rev’d Kasema have asked Faith & Worship to consider starting it again. After morning worship, there will be a brief opportunity to respond to the message or to bring situations for prayer. Faith & Worship supports the idea, but we need a team of volunteers who could help about once every four weeks. If you may be interested, or would like to know more, please speak to Estelle B. or Brian S. We need volunteers before we can make further plans, so please let us know over the next few weeks. If you feel you cannot pray aloud with or for others, you may still be able to help. Please talk to Estelle or Brian.
Please note: no groups will be held in church. Groups will restart on Monday 7th September at 10.00am. First Friday is also cancelled on Friday 4th September.
