*******************************
Bible Overview Workshop: On Saturday 20th January from 9.00 am – 12.45 pm we have been invited to join with folks from around the diocese in Poulton-le-Fylde for this teaching. Many of us want to read and understand the Bible, but don't really know how it fits together, and so can easily get lost and discouraged. Looking at a 'Bible Overview' is a way of tracing the main story of the Bible, so we can see the one glorious plan of salvation in Christ, but also so we have a framework to help us understand all the other parts of the Bible. This free workshop will be suitable for those who are new to reading the Bible, as well as those of us who may have read it for years, but want to grow in our understanding. Do you fancy a morning of study? If so sign up at the back of church indicating whether or not you need a lift.
Heavenly Father, You are the fountain of all wisdom and the author of truth. In the quiet
moments of study and reflection upon Your Word, I humbly approach You, seeking the
understanding that only Your Spirit can provide.
My heart longs to comprehend the depths of Your teachings, to grasp the breadth of Your commandments, and to embody the wisdom that is more precious than rubies.
Without Your wisdom, the Scriptures are like a sealed book; with Your guidance, they are a wellspring of life. Let my study be not just an intellectual exercise, but a spiritual communion with You.
Community Games and Crafts for all: This is a new group which will meet on the first Monday of every month in the Jubilee Room from 2 pm – 3.30 pm, starting on 5th February. There will be board games available to play and a simple craft each week to join in with. Come along, bring a friend and enjoy a cuppa and some company. For more information contact Moira on 07845 737154.
