Holiday at Home 2-6 July 2012

We would like to extend an invitation to come and enjoy a Holiday at Home this July, and we would particularly welcome people who have not previously holidayes with us to join in the fun.

Of course, if more people attend, it means that we will need more help. Could you offer any help particularly to transport our holiday makers to and from Allterton, move furniture, or push wheelchairs on our day out? We also need help to welcome, serve and wash up etc.

You don't have to commit to help all week, we would be grateful for any time you can offer. This event is always thoroughly enjoyed by both our holiday makers and our helpers!

For more information, to book a place, or to offer help, please contact Linda Atkin.

Prayer Let us pray: Generous God, even as we praise you for the good news of today, and seek to shout for joy at the coming of the Christ-child, we acknowledge Mary’s mix of pain and joy, both today and in the days to come. As we do so, we face our own emotions on this difficult and delightful day, and ask your help to live it well. Amen. Carol You might like to sing, or reflect on the words of Geoffrey Ainger’s hymn at StF 193/H&P 95, Born in the night, Mary’s child, a long way from your home; coming in need, Mary’s child, born in a borro...

Advent 4: Thinking about BLESSING Service sheet (pdf) Hymn: STF 187 The Angel Gabriel From Heaven Came Introduction Christmas is only days away now. How will you welcome Jesus into your home this year? After last year’s loss and longing, will the blessings of this year’s Christmas celebrations have any extra special meaning for you? Today’s worship is focussed on signs of greeting and blessing. Call to worship Come, greet one another in the name of the Lord. Come, bring all you have and be blessed.
