Thursday 1st of May is the Festival of the Ascension of our Lord this year. As we are not having a service on Thursday, we will be including our commemoration of the Ascension in our Sunday service (5th May). In particular we will thinking about what it means for each of us that our Lord took our human nature into the heavenly sanctuary when He ascended.
Service is at 8.30am.
KIDS' CLUB will also meet this week, from 4.30pm-5.30pm on Friday night at the church. Please pass the word around to all those with children.
The Lord be with you,
