Summer Coffee Evenings raise over £1,200

We would like to say a big thank you to all who supported us for your help in making our Summer Coffee Evenings such a brilliant success. The evenings have proved to be very popular and have been really well attended, attracting people from Wilsden village as well as members of other churches in the circuit. Together we have munched our way through a tonne of biscuits and home-made scones and consumed gallons of coffee and tea. We have baked and bric-a-bracked and book sorted and are all exhausted and half a stone heavier than we were in May but feel it has been well worth the effort.

In addition to enjoying very pleasant social evenings, with God's help we have succeeded in raising over £1,200 - approximately £250 each for the five chosen charities: Yorkshire Air Ambulance, Parkinson Society, Alzheimer's Society, Multiple Sclerosis Society and Martin House Children's Hospice.

We are already planning for next summer and look forward to seeing you all.

July 2014 Prayer Column

Prayer and trafficking In prayer (as in all discipleship) we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against the ‘powers of darkness’ led by the devil (Eph 6:11-12). He always deceives to destroy (John 8:44), and we can use this knowledge in our praying. Take human trafficking, for example: Deception : ●Riches are used as a lure, offering a better way of life (we’ve been similarly hoodwinked for a long time) but you can’t serve God and money (Mt 6:24). ●There’s often corruption of officialdom by bribery. ●Blatant lies are told to victims, and probably to ‘customers’ – ●who’re duped to see sex as a god of satisfaction, ●and who’re obviously cheating on their wives, to whom they have made marriage vows. Marriage is a gift of God, to be honoured (Gen 1:24; Mt 19:15; Heb 13:4). ●You may be able to add other points. Destruction : ●Prostitution is doing for money what should be done for love, and the commercialisation of sex ...
