Suffering Christians

Recent events in Pakistan, which included a suicide attack on Easter Day on a fairground used by Christians, in which 70 people were killed, is a cause of grave concern for Pakistani Christians who live in West Yorkshire. We have received the following report from Saleem and Joyce D:

We had a Good Friday prayer meeting, and it was celebrated in an Asian way. We had lots of praying and bible reading. The prayer meeting was blessed with the Holy Spirit.

We also had Holy Communion and finally, we also prayed for the world's peace and especially for Brussels and UK.

Two days later, we heard of the unfortunate incident in Lahore, Pakistan. There was a bomb blast in the park where lots of people died and around 300 were injured. Both Muslims and Christians were killed and injured in this incident.

Please continue praying for Pakistan.

Thanks

God bless

Calverley's Young Potters

The children of the Charlie Wesley Craft and Cooking Club, and a couple of Dads too, turned their hand to pottery, when we created the animals that went into the Ark. The figures were air-dried then fired to bisque, and then they were painted and glazed and re-fired. How do you like the results? Charlie Wesley Craft and Cooking Club at Calverley Methodist Church has developed into a group of 3 to 8 year olds (and mums and dads too) who meet on the first Saturday of the month and cook and craft stories from the Bible.
