St. Paul’s News April 2015

This Sunday it is Soul Breakfast at 10am, brought forward as it is Easter the following weekend.  If you’ve never been to St. Paul’s (or church for that matter) before, the relaxed and friendly Soul Breakfast (held in the Church Hall) is a great place to come and see what goes on.  There’s a children’s craft table, and breakfast and tea/coffee/refreshments provided!

All are most welcome to our Easter events:

Good Friday 12noon – an Hour by the Cross – a contemplative service for Good Friday where we gather for an hour in the Prayer Chapel to reflect on the Cross of Christ.

Easter Sunday 10am – Easter Service with Communion

On the Saturday before Easter, 4th April, we celebrate the wedding of Amy Ankers and Joe Malik at St.Paul’s. We have also been reading the banns of James McGloin and Helen Lake who live in Chester Green and are getting married on 18th April in Gloucestershire. Our very best wishes go to both these couples.
