Ella, Purdie and Samuel had a great day at the Diocesan Youth Conference called Abide, held on 10th October, at St Micheal's High School, Chorley. Our young people felt it was the best Abide meeting yet.Over 200 young Christians attended the event, from churches from all parts of the Diocese. It was such a great opportunity for our Yurch group to meet other like-minded young people.The day was filled with lots of fun activites and games, a eucharist led by Bishop Philip, and a very powerful talk by Christian Influencers John and Jade Reynolds.Ella and Samuel also led the intercessions at our Sunday service of Parish Communion the following morning. 🙏
Although we didn't have enough participants to go ahead with our Harvest bowling competition, we enjoyed a special Sunday lunch at the Coach & Horses, Freckleton instead. 🙏
Thank you to Fr John Hall for leading our special Harvest Festival 'Worship4U' family service today, thank you to everyone who decorated the church so beautifully for the season, and thank you to everyone who kindly donated money and food. The money will go to the Diocese of Blackburn Bishop's Harvest Appeal for the Diocese of Liwolo, South Sudan, and the food will go to the Fylde Foodbank.
